Inaugurated in 1992 by Param Pujya Gurudev Swami Chinmayanandaji. On November 1992, Pujya Gurudev was present at the sanctification of Lord Kedar. Lord Kedar is an unusual representation of Lord Shiva. Lord Kedar represents a moment when Lord Shiva, having just risen from a spell of meditation, has had his bath. Glowing with the radiance of the Truth, He is joyfully, yet peacefully, blessing the Rishis and Gods who have assembled to witness His Glory.

Just as a Kalpvrksha fulfills the desires of a layman, Chinmaya Mission has been fulfilling the spiritual aspirations of millions of devotees across the globe since its inception in 1950s. Inspired by His Holiness Pujya Swami Chinmayananda Vedanta Study and Satsang classes have been ongoing in Philadelphia area since long. Pujya Swami Chinmayananda ji visited Harleysville area several times during 1980-90s. As a culmination of efforts by Shri Chanduhaiji Patel and other families Chinmaya Mission Harleysville (CMH) Bala Vihar® was started in 2009. Pujya Guruji Swami Tejomayananda ji during his 2011 visit to CMH approved the proposal for an ashram in Harleysville area. With the financial support from Chinmaya Mission Acharyas, Swami Shantananda ji & Swami Siddhananda ji, a four acre land was purchased by CM Tri-state Center (CMTC) in Harleysville PA in 2011 for the proposed mission building. Pujya Guruji during his visit in May 2012 named the center as “Chinmaya Ramalaya”. The new ashram will consist of a shrine of Shri Lord Rama parivar, well equipped Bala Vihar class rooms, auditorium, Yoga studio, Community hall, and Dining facilities.

Chinmaya Ramdoot, earlier called as BBNJ center was blessed and initiated on January 2nd, 2000 at Basking Ridge in one of Chinmaya Sevak’s residence. Started by few families, we grew very quickly. BBNJ center activities were then moved to Bridgewater High school to accommodate more classrooms for Balavihar. Under the guidance of Swami Shantananda, our center activities are now spearheaded by senior Sevaks and Volunteers. For more than a decade many camps, study classes and cultural programs catering to the spiritual needs of all age groups were conducted by the balavihar families in our centre. Ramdoot has been serving as the satellite centre of Chinmaya Mission Tri State Centre (CMTC) activities at Basking Ridge/Bridgewater and has been carrying forward the noble work for nearly two decades to realize the Missions motto: “To give maximum happiness to maximum number for maximum time”. All activities of Ramdoot are focused on fulfilling the vision-”To provide to individuals from any background, the wisdom of Vedanta and the practical means for spiritual growth and happiness, enabling them to become positive contributors to society”. The centre conducts various activities like regular Satsangs, “JnanaYagnas”-lecture series on Hindu scriptural texts, spiritual camps for all age groups, music events, and celebration of festivals in traditional manner. Regular study classes for children, youth and adults are also conducted to make life happier and the world better based on the guidance from Indian scriptures.
