Swami Chinmayananda left his mortal coil. Yet Gurudev is ever-present with us. We can seek him in our hearts. Without this great Master, the timeless wisdom of Vedanta in simple, practical English, accessible to people of all backgrounds, cultures, genders, and faiths, would not be as widely available today. Through his life and work, ancient knowledge was made living, relevant, and transformative.<br><br>It is not a day of separation, but of remembrance and renewed inspiration, as his vision continues to shine through Chinmaya Mission across the world.<br><br>We warmly invite all devotees to join this sacred gathering of prayer, reflection, and devotion. Let us come together in gratitude to the Guru Parampara, reconnect with the teachings of Vedanta, and renew our commitment to live a life of wisdom, service, and inner joy—just as Gurudev envisioned.<br><br><b>DATE</b><br>Monday 3 August 2026<br><br><b>TIME</b><br>7:00 PM - 9:00 PM<br><br><b><br></b><br><b>LOCATION</b><br>Chinmaya Sannidhi Ashram, 38 Carrington Road, Castle Hill NSW 2154<br><b><br></b><br><b>PROGRAM<br></b>7.00pm: Shree Vyasa Pooja<br>7.45pm: Shree Gurudev Paduka Pooja<br>8.15pm: Bhajans, Pushpanjali &amp; Dakshina offering<br>8.45pm: Presentation &amp; Arati<br>9.00pm: Prasad<br><b><br></b><br><b>SEVA</b><br>All can Participate, If you would like to be part of:<br>+ Main Puja Yajman Seva ($251) - Call Nandu 0408 445 941<br>+ Prasad Seva - Call Uma 0430 281 319<br>+ Flower Seva - Call Anu 0411 165 357<br>+ Seva on the day - Call Nandu 0408 445 941<br><b>OFFERING</b><br>How to give your Guru Dakshina (Donation):<br>+ Click to donate: <a href=\"https://www.chinmaya.com.au/pages/donations\">https://www.chinmaya.com.au/pages/donations</a><br><b>PARKING AVAILABLE </b><br>+ Free Parking at the back of the ashram<br>+ Free Parking at 40 Carrington Rd, Castle Hill (Note: Do not park between the APAC bay No. 20 to No. 40, no parking under the buildings) <br>+ Paid Parking at the Hills Showgrounds Metro Station Public Car Park<br><b><br>RESOURCES</b><br><b>+ Guru Purnima &amp; Gurudev Aradhana - Puja steps, 108 names of Bhagavan Veda Vyasa Rishi, 108 Names of Gurudev, Prayers to be chanted</b><br><a href=\"https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1Zn7NRhxMaGoYLyTJBeUKi3Zli5-YtitY?usp=sharing\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"pastedDriveLink-0\"><b>https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1Zn7NRhxMaGoYLyTJBeUKi3Zli5-YtitY?usp=sharing</b></a><br><b>REGISTRATION</b><br><br>To register for free, click<br><a href=\"https://www.trybooking.com/DNIHP\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.trybooking.com/DNIHP</a>","shortDescription":"For all seekers and devotees, Guru Purnima and Gurudev Aradhana Day is a sacred ...","addToCalendarLinks":{"google":"https://api.eventcalendarapp.com/addToCalendarProxy/15012/53581/evt_external_6a1802ba6b3e8f89ce1fad66?type=google&widgetUuid=a2e41a0b-ac76-49c5-9a34-5842e7b40b84&repeatId=evt_external_6a1802ba6b3e8f89ce1fad66","live":"https://api.eventcalendarapp.com/addToCalendarProxy/15012/53581/evt_external_6a1802ba6b3e8f89ce1fad66?type=live&widgetUuid=a2e41a0b-ac76-49c5-9a34-5842e7b40b84&repeatId=evt_external_6a1802ba6b3e8f89ce1fad66","office":"https://api.eventcalendarapp.com/addToCalendarProxy/15012/53581/evt_external_6a1802ba6b3e8f89ce1fad66?type=office&widgetUuid=a2e41a0b-ac76-49c5-9a34-5842e7b40b84&repeatId=evt_external_6a1802ba6b3e8f89ce1fad66","ics":"https://api.eventcalendarapp.com/addToCalendarProxy/15012/53581/evt_external_6a1802ba6b3e8f89ce1fad66?type=ics&widgetUuid=a2e41a0b-ac76-49c5-9a34-5842e7b40b84&repeatId=evt_external_6a1802ba6b3e8f89ce1fad66"},"filters":[],"soldOut":false},{"calendar_id":53581,"event_uid":"b50e566506970ae1690bb9323a4623dc","summary":"Sydney - Vishnu Sahasranama Chanting - Monthly","description":"<p>Chinmaya Mission Sydney invites you and the family to join us for Reciting the Vishnu Sahasranama.   </p><p>Vishnu Sahasranama consists of thousand names of Lord Vishnu, is a spiritual sadhana (practise) intended to invoke the blessings, brings peace and deepen one's relationship with the divine.
