WHO WE ARE

A global community guided by the heart.

Shri Ram Chandra Mission is a worldwide non-profit founded on the principles of Sahaj Marg — a simple, natural path of heart-based meditation. For over seven decades, we have welcomed seekers of every background to experience inner balance, mindful living, and universal brotherhood.

Through quiet daily practice and freely shared guidance, we help individuals reconnect with the stillness within and carry that calm into every part of life.

SRCM WORLDWIDE

A worldwide family of seekers, since 1945.

Shri Ram Chandra Mission was established in Shahjahanpur, North India in 1945. It offers the simple and unique Heartfulness Meditation rooted in Sahaj Marg, serving seekers of spirituality in over 100 countries across every continent.

These worldwide centres gather to celebrate the birth anniversaries of the gurus, host seminars, and provide spiritual education, research and training for inner growth.

Amid the din and hustle of the outside world, people are feeling a deep inner call of the heart to retreat to solace — our ashrams worldwide offer this opportunity in an environment of purity and serenity.

VISITING AN ASHRAM

Places for rejuvenation and retreat.

An ashram is a place where you can step away from the world and go deeply into your practice. SRCM has ashrams in Europe, North America, Africa, Oceania, South-East Asia and many across India. The World Headquarters of SRCM is at the Babuji Memorial Ashram, Chennai, India.

Ashrams also host thousands of people annually to celebrate the birth anniversaries of the gurus of Sahaj Marg — events with a unique atmosphere that offer a special opportunity for introspection and spiritual growth.
