An unforgettable day for the Chinmaya Family, as Pujya Guruji Swami Tejomayanandaji passed the “Guru Seva Padak” (baton) to Pujya Swami Swaroopanandaji, of being Global Head of Chinmaya Mission.
The audience at the Tapovan Hall of Sandeepany Sadhanalaya (Mumbai) was made up of Acharyas, devotees and well-wishers, and thousands more watched the webcast from around the world. It was especially heartwarming to have the family members of Guruji and Swamiji present.
The highlight of the event was a most touching docu-film called “Ever In His Service, Ever At His Feet”, beautifully presenting Guruji’s deep and absolute tuning with beloved Pujya Gurudev Swami Chinmayanandaji.
In his talk, Guruji said, “Let us be always in His Service, remaining always at His feet. There lies our welfare and well being.”
Swami Swaroopanandaji’s words overflowed with poignancy. Swamiji’s talk, about the grace and guidance of Gurudev and Guruji, moved everyone in the audience. His faith and surrender were very evident. When he said that Guruji is not stepping down but rather “stepping up” the audience was in raptures.
Swamiji presented his Hanumanji, his Guruji, with a beautiful Rama Parivar statue, after which the trustees of CCMT, TCT and CST Mumbai presented many offerings of love, the best of the lot being a giant cheque for infinite amount of Love, Love, Love.
From the entire Chinmaya Mission family, today and always, to Gurudev, Guruji and Swamiji, we offer an outpouring of the same: Love, Love, Love…
