The transition from an institute centered around our extraordinary teacher, Sri Shyamji Bhatnagar, to one of that can properly hold his legacy and teachings, is one of the more challenging transitions for this type of institution. Every organization built around the teachings of a great spiritual teacher faces this moment of transition. It is rarely easy. We meet this moment with gratitude for all that Sri Shyamji gave us, and with full commitment to honoring that gift by building something worthy of it.

Our Mission
The mission of the Chakra Institute is to help individuals expand their awareness beyond materialism. We are able to do this when we free ourselves from patterns of thoughts and feelings that lead us to live subject to suffering, anxiety and/or a sense of unfulfillment. Such freedom becomes available when we become aware that we can change the way way think and feel by following simple practices. To learn about such practices, please click on the Read More button.
