        <h3 class="title_heading_wrapper p-4 text_grey"> Why Meditate? </h3>
        <p> There are many reasons to meditate. Some seek inner peace, happiness, love, enlightenment, union,
          Self-realisation, truth, balance. Some have this innate need to answer the question, “Who am I?” </p>
        <p> Meditation is a practical way to nurture and rejuvenate the true inner being, which is also known as the
          Self.</p>
        <p> Heartfulness Meditation is a journey into the heart, to feel the inner joy. It is a scientific
          meditation practice, based on personal experience. It starts with a Guided Relaxation Technique, after
          which you may slip into Meditation with yogic transmission. To assess the efficacy of the system you may
          try meditation without transmission, before commencing.</p>

                        our inner selves and a lasting direction and meaning to our lives.</h5>
                    <p> More and more people across the globe are turning to meditation, realising that in order to
                        reach our full potential as complete, balanced human beings, our inner spiritual longings
                        must be addressed along with the material demands of daily life.</p>
                    <p> The practice of Sahaj Marg is both simple and effective. It includes a morning meditation,
                        evening cleaning meditation and a short prayer at bedtime. All the elements combine to
                        create a complete system which enlivens us every day and makes us better able to change and
                        grow. It is made possible by an ancient yogic technique called pranahuti or transmission,
                        which was rediscovered by the first guide of the Sahaj Marg system. Transmission is at the
                        heart of Sahaj Marg and gives life to meditation.</p>
                    <p> There are many SRCM trainers around the world, and they are called prefects. They introduce
                        and support people in the practice of Sahaj Marg, and provide information.</p>

                    <p> SRCM has a network of prefects in cities, towns and villages throughout India. Prefects can

                        meditation and have been trained to provide ongoing support to others. They meet with abhyasis
                        (spiritual aspirants) regularly for one-to-one meditation sessions, and to give guidance and
                        support where necessary. They also conduct group meditations, where people can gather together
                        to meditate in silence.</p>
                    <p> There are many ashrams and centres throughout the Indian subcontinent, where abhyasis gather to
                        meditate and also share their experiences and ideas. As Sahaj Marg is a system suited to family
                        life, children are welcome. Most centres have bookstores, where the literature of the Masters of
                        Sahaj Marg can be found. For information on finding an ashram or centre near to you, go to <a rel="noopener noreferrer" href="http://www.sahajmarg.org/smww/find-centre" target="_blank"><strong>Find a Centre.</strong></a></p>

                        <p> The natural calamity that struck Chennai in the first week of December 2015 is unprecedented
                            in over 100 years of Chennai’s history. Many families have been badly affected.</p>
                        <p> The damage to Shri Ram Chandra Mission’s world headquarters in Manapakkam is unparalleled.
                            The time, efforts and costs involved are huge. It will be a long winding road before we
                            return back to normal. To this effect, SRCM has officially set up a donation page, as
                            indicated below. We request everyone to join hands and support in this effort.</p>
                        <p> We are in need of a lot of volunteer effort in this humungous rebuilding process. We require
                            electrical and plumbing skilled workers and at least 150 able-bodied volunteers for cleaning
                            and restoration work.</p>
                        <p> Whether you wish to volunteer or make a donation, any effort on your part will help us
                            immensely in restoring our Manapakkam facility to normal.</p>

              <p> The Shri Ram Chandra Mission (SRCM) was formally associated as a non-governmental organization
                  (NGO) with the United Nations Department of Public Information (UN DPI) on 12 December 2005,
                  coincidentally when both the SRCM and the UN were marking their 60th anniversaries.</p>
              <p> As an international non-governmental organization that works in support of the public good and
                  fulfills the principles outlined in the UN Charter, the Shri Ram Chandra Mission joins more than
                  1,500 other non-governmental organizations worldwide currently associated with the UN DPI.</p>
              <h5 class="light_title_heading py-2"> UN and NGOs </h5>
              <p> The United Nations recognizes that solidarity and goodwill among the world’s nations and
                  peoples, and the assumption of collective responsibility, are necessary for the establishment of
                  a world in which everyone may enjoy lasting peace and a sustainable life. To this end, the UN
                  has been establishing partnerships with local, national and international, non-profit,
                  service-oriented, voluntary groups that share similar values.</p>

              <p> Since its founding in 1945, the Shri Ram Chandra Mission has been providing a platform for
                  spiritual and practical living used by people in more than 100 nations. Every day, in its
                  ashrams and in hundreds of centres worldwide, individuals from all walks of life—diverse
                  nationalities, religious backgrounds, social and economic circumstances—come together,
                  transcending boundaries in an atmosphere of love, trust and brotherhood.</p>
              <p> The Mission achieves this unity of purpose by offering, without charge to all those who are
                  interested, a simple and practical method of spiritual training known as Sahaj Marg. Sahaj Marg
                  supports the unfolding of the full potential within an individual, who may then assume
                  responsibility for personal growth and social change. Over the decades, guided by the third
                  president of the mission, Shri Parthasarathi Rajagopalachari, the Shri Ram Chandra Mission has
                  actively promoted human integration and evoked within the hearts of its practitioners the belief
                  that all life is sacred. The current president and the spiritual representative, Shri Kamlesh D.
                  Patel is continuing to actively promote the involvement of the mission and foster human
                  integration.</p>
              <p> The Mission’s involvement with the UN comes at a time when more individuals around the world are
                  benefiting from the Mission’s spiritual services, and when the emblematic purpose of the UN to
                  become a centre for harmonizing the actions of nations is ever more in need of support.</p>
              <p> Recognizing the urgency for people with similar values to convene on a shared platform, the Shri
                  Ram Chandra Mission embraces this association in the faith that, ultimately, selfless actions
                  will govern the destiny of human beings.</p>

                   <p>Kamlesh bhai, as he prefers to be called, was born in Gujarat. From an early age he was interested in spirituality and meditation. While still a student of pharmacy in Ahmedabad in 1976, he met his first spiritual Guide, Ram Chandra of Shahjahanpur (Babuji), the Founder-President of Shri Ram Chandra Mission.</p>

            <div class="col-md-12">
                <p>After graduating, he moved to the USA, and became a successful pharmacist in New York City, while continuing his spiritual practice. After Babuji’s passing in 1983, Kamlesh bhai continued as the devotee of Parthasarathi Rajagopalachari (Chariji), Babuji’s successor. During the last twenty years, he has held a number of responsible roles within SRCM, and has supported the growth of the organisation in many parts of the world. He was announced as Chariji’s successor in October 2011, and given the position of Vice-President of SRCM in August 2012.</p>
                <p>Following the passing of Chariji on the 20th of December 2014, he became the spiritual Guide of the Sahaj Marg system of Raja Yoga meditation and President of SRCM.</p>
                <p>Kamlesh bhai has always been a person with a total focus on his spiritual evolution, while integrating this with his worldly life. While living in New York, he carried on the daily work in his pharmacies, involving considerable commuting, endless hours of standing to serve customers and training others. He took any and every chance to be with Babuji and Chariji, however uncomfortable the travelling might have been. He has a vast appetite for books and is prolific with his own personal research work in the field of science and spirituality.</p>
                <p>Kamlesh bhai travels constantly these days, visiting centres and ashrams around the world. A no-fuss person, with seemingly infinite patience to carry out the vision of his Guides, he is a prolific speaker and a role model for students of spirituality who seek that perfect blend of Eastern heart and Western mind.</p>
