Chinmaya Vrindavan Vedantic Lectures Chinmaya Vrindavan Swami Shantanandaji is well known for his unparalleled devotion to Lord Krishna and for his absolute devotion to his Guru, Swami Chinmayanandaji. Due to this unique qualification that Swamiji possesses, many devotees come to him from diverse backgrounds, cultures and geographies, and discover Self-knowledge through the study of major Upanishads, Srimad Bhagavad Gita, Srimad Bhagavatam, Ramacharit Manas, and Narayaneeyam (to name a few). True to his devotion to his Guru, Swamiji himself traveled extensively, taught near and far, and has devotees in every part of the world.

Ministry Matters Aaron Nelson Some of the most important, interesting and challenging conversations we can have revolve around things like purpose, spirituality, faith, hope, and God. Important – because we are all hardwired to seek out answers to these questions! Interesting, because hearing about other people’s journey can give us hope or encouragement or a sense of…I’m not alone! – and challenging because these kinds of conversations can be super charged with so much baggage that we fear opening up about them with someone else. But hopefully fear will be far from here! Every few weeks, the Ministry Matters podcast
