 ======================================================================== Chinmaya Mission It is a great joy to share news of the completion of the 18th Vedanta Course. Under the guidance of Pujya Guruji Swami Tejomayananda, in the hallowed portals of Sandeepany Sadhanalaya, Powai, Mumbai, the batch of 26 Brahmacharins (8 Brahmacharinis and 18 Brahmacharis) began their journey on 14 January 2021 and successfully graduated on 30 October 2022. To live the knowledge they have received, the passing out batch of Brahmacharins have been variously assigned to different Centres. This provides them with the perfect opportunity to serve in the field and immerse themselves in their sadhana, as they grow within. We would like to express our collective gratitude to Pujya Guruji for the love and devotion with which he reared the 18th batch and wish each one of them the very best in their spiritual quest. May Pujya Gurudev’s blessings be always on them! ===============================================
