Youth is a stage in human development when the personality is bursting with energy, enthusiasm and dynamism. This is also a phase in life when receptivity and retentivity are at the optimum. What they require is a clear vision of a goal in life and exercises for the cultivation of the right values of life to enable them to mould their personality and harness their inner resources along constructive channels. This systematic preparation alone can equip the youth to face the challenges of life with a smile.
- Swami Chinmayananda

Chinmaya Yuva Kendra is a youth organization that is committed towards harnessing youth potential through dynamic spirituality. In this day and age, where mobile phones and malls are the conventional recreational destinations for youngsters, we provide a different perspective on life to youngsters. Started in 1975, Chinmaya Yuva Kendra has been a vibrant organization that has organized national-level programs and has reached out to thousands of youngsters across the country. Our goal is to ensure that youngsters become dynamic ambassadors of our country and culture not through mere words but by firm actions.

Check out the initiatives to know more about our activities.

Have you ever seen a team of 100+ youngsters organize a mega summer camp for 700+ children? Well, Chinmaya Yuva Kendra Chennai has been doing it for more than 15 years.

Creating an Optimistic OutLook (COOL) is our primary goal at Chinmaya Yuva Kendra. In our effort to inculcate positive thoughts and dynamic spirits within children between the age group 7-12, we organize “COOL Camp” every year during the first week of May.

Come join us to be a part of this fun event.

Temple Run is an infinite runner game where the player must escape from a demon against all obstacles and traps. However, the Chyk version of Temple Run is different. Here, we wake up before sunrise, drive to temples in and around the city of Chennai while the sun is rising. We seek God through bhajans, appreciate the temple through its history and architecture, and finally relish some tasty breakfast at local restaurants. Through these Temple Runs, we defeat the demons within us such as laziness, waking up late in the morning, and ego to reach the temple. Sounds interesting?

Then join Chinmaya Yuvakendra to be a part of this fun exercise.

Want to go to the Himalayas and take a dip in the biting cold waters of Mother Ganga? Want to walk through 12 km of the divine hills of Thirumala to see Lord Venkateshwara? Want to do white water rafting in Haridwar?

More importantly, want to do all of this with learning and a fun-loving group? Through and through, we grow to be better human beings, with a spirit of adventure and spontaneity.

Join Chinmaya Yuvakendra to go on adventure trips where we learn and have fun.

Chinmaya Yuva Kendra is known for its quirky yet insightful camps and workshops. We organize residential camps on various themes to address the needs and challenges of youngsters. We have national-level camps where more than 800 members of Chinmaya Yuva Kendra from across the country meet to interact, network, and grow.

We also organize movie workshops, life skills sessions and public speaking workshops among others that contribute towards the holistic development of an individual.

Is our life limited to our emotions? Are we really social animals whose happiness lies in objects and situations? How do I get out of this vicious cycle of materialism?

The answer lies in the immortal scriptures of our ancestors. Right from the type of food we eat to the quality of thoughts to nurture, our ancestors have left us with an amazing trove of treasure. They are called the Vedas, Upanishads, Puranas, and Itihasas. Through weekly study classes, we learn the values embedded in our scriptures to evolve and serve in this lifetime.

Join Chinmaya Yuvakendra to become more dynamic and independent in life.
