Chinmaya Mission : Chinmaya Mission Guyana found its roots in Georgetown, thanks to the dedicated efforts of Swami Prakashanandaji, the Head of Chinmaya Mission Trinidad and Tobago. Guided by his wisdom, the mission flourished, and a gathering of over 200 people witnessed his profound words about the progress and noble endeavors of Chinmaya Mission in Guyana. An unforgettable evening unfolded at the Chandni Banquet Hall in Toronto, Canada, as four esteemed artists, namely Hemant Panwar, Pt. Devanand Ramoutar, Pt. Rajin Balgobind, and Sumana Ganguly, took to the stage. The presence of Swami Prakashananda Ji, Swamini Shivapriyanandaji, and Swami Bhajananandaji added a spiritual aura to our first Fundraising Concert. The event's proceeds were devoted to the construction of the Guyana ashram, making it an evening filled with profound purpose and harmonious melodies. ========================================================================= All Members, Respected family members of this g

Its literature consists chiefly of: (i) the twenty-eight Saivite Agamas, (ii) the collection of Saivite hymns known as Tirumurai, (Compiled by Nambi Andar Nambi, the Tirumurai includes the Tirumantiram of Tirumular, the Tevaram of Appar, Sundarar and Sambandhar, and the Tiruvachakam of Manikkavachagar.)

Hindu Philosophy-II (The Schools of Vedanta) ========================================================================= The Suddhadvaita Philosophy Of Sri Vallabha :  Introduction : The philosophy of Sri Vallabhacharya is Suddha-Advaita or pure monism, because he does not admit Maya like Sankara, and believes that the whole world of matter and souls is real and is only a subtle form of God.
