Product Description


Adi Sankaracharya is among the greatest revolutionary thinkers of all time. He renewed, uplifted and restored Vaidika culture to its true greatness. He was not only the founder of a great philosophical movement but also a compassionate teacher, a tireless missionary and a brilliant poet-writer who could convey complex and profound truths in words of elegant simplicity. Bhaja Govindam is one of Adi Sankaracarya's most beautiful works, composed in clear and effective language and addressed to simple folk struggling with the demands of life, but also capable of keeping intellectual philosophers engrossed. It is rightly described as a fragrant bouquet of verses. The clear, precise and eloquent commentary of Swami Chinmayananda adds to the fragrance of the original composition, inviting the spiritual seeker to reflect upon the meaning of the verses, attempt to understand, absorb and live the truth behind the words.

About the Author

Swami Chinmayananda

Born as Balakrishna Menon on May 8, 1916 in Ernakulam, Kerala, Swami Chinmayananda was a dynamic youth with a sharp mind. After earning a degree in English Literature, he embarked on a promising career in journalism and became involved in India’s freedom struggle.

Imprisoned and struck by serious illness in 1942, Balakrishna emerged changed and began to question the deeper purpose of life. A turning point came in Rishikesh where he met Swami Sivananda in 1947; this meeting set him on an inward journey. Soon after, he adopted renunciation and was initiated as Swami Chinmayananda Saraswati, becoming a disciple of Swami Tapovan Maharaj, with whom he studied the Bhagavad Gita, Upanishads and Vedanta in austere conditions high in the Himalayas.

After completing his spiritual training, he felt compelled to share the wisdom he had received. In December 1951, he conducted his first Jnana Yajna, a series of spiritual discourses in Pune. This humble start blossomed into the global movement known today as Chinmaya Mission, as he founded many Ashrams, Centres, schools, hospitals and clinics over the decades. He worked to make Vedanta accessible to all regardless of age, nationality or faith.

For over four decades, Swami Chinmayananda traveled and taught tirelessly writing books, giving lectures, training disciples, and meeting seekers wherever they were. He saw the timeless values of India’s spiritual heritage not as relics of the past, but as living tools for modern life.

He attained Mahasamadhi in August 1993. His legacy continues through the many institutions he founded, the teachings he left behind in books and audio-video recordings and the ongoing work of those trained under him at Chinmaya Mission Centres worldwide.
