About Swami Mitrananda
Swami
Mitrananda has a huge youth following, largely because of his innovative
methodologies in making the ancient wisdom of Hinduism extraordinarily
appealing to the rational and adventure-seeking young minds. Under his
leadership, the Chinmaya Yuva Kendra organized two large-scale projects, the
nationwide ‘Awakening Indians to India’ quiz program and the Youth Empowerment
Programme. Through the Awakening Indians to India quiz programme, he reached
out to 500,000 youth across the nation and thus, conducted the largest ever quiz
in the sub-continent. The Youth Empowerment Programme was designed by him to
create empowered and dynamic youth leaders to do socially relevant work in
different parts of India and abroad.
Swami
Mitrananda has travelled to many countries including United Kingdom, Turkey,
Indonesia, Philippines, Singapore, Hong Kong, China and Dubai to spread the
message of Hinduism and Vedanta. He has lectured at various leading corporate
houses of India such as Hyundai Motors, Polaris Industries, TVS Group, and has
also addressed students of leading business schools in India such as Symbiosis
Institute of Management. He represented India at the Global Forum of
Faith-based Organizations for Population and Development organized by UNFPA in
Turkey in October 2008.
