The Chinfo Channel is the primary YouTube Channel of Chinmaya International Foundation (CIF). The Channel is dedicated to disseminating profound Indic knowledge to audiences worldwide.
CIF is a non-profit organisation established in 1989 and is a research centre for the study of Sanskrit and Indology. A core part of the global Chinmaya Mission, it is focused on the preservation and dissemination/transmission of Indian Knowledge traditions such as Darshana (Philosophy), Sanskrit, Vedanta, Vedic Mathematics, and Indian Management principles.
Gurudev Swami Chinmayananda envisioned CIF as a bridge between East and West, past and present, science and spirituality, and pundit and public. And this he made the Vision statement for CIF. Arising out of this vision statement is ChinfoChannel, through which the various lectures, discourses, and satsangs conducted by CIF will be shared with all aspirants and seekers of spiritual wisdom and teachers and students of Indian philosophy.

Greetings on the sacred occasion of Gita Jayanti.
The timeless declared itself in time on this day, bringing healing to the troubled mind of humanity, represented by Arjuna. Through the divine dialogue between Lord Sri Krishna and the earnest seeker, the veil of confusion was lifted, revealing the strength, clarity and courage that lie within every human heart.
In a world that often overwhelms, the Bhagavad Gita reminds that peace is possible, clarity is attainable and true freedom is found within.
May its eternal light illumine every mind and awaken every heart.ππΌπͺ·
