Chetna Society

While the academic system of our country excels in preparing young minds for a competitive future, there is an increasing need for learners to cultivate essential qualities such as values, attitudes, and right conduct. To address this, K.R. Mangalam University has established the Chetna Society. This pioneering initiative aims to imbue students with a set of aspirational values, guiding them towards a balanced and focused life across material, ethical, and spiritual dimensions.

The Chetna Society provides a platform for students to connect with their inner wisdom through heartfulness meditation, helping them calm and guide their minds. By fostering inner growth and balance, society addresses the challenges faced by today’s youth, who often struggle to prioritize amidst numerous goals. Through its various programs, Chetna Society seeks to inspire a sense of well-being and joy, nurturing a generation of mindful and well-rounded individuals. From time to time, expert sessions by IAS Officers are conducted who discuss various aspects of the student’s life including managing time and stress, overcoming fear etc. The society also partners with the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (Iskcon) which conducts various sessions.

The Objectives of Chetna Society are as:

  • To foster values, attitudes, and conduct that support balanced and ethical living among students.
  • To help students connect with their inner wisdom and use it to guide their personal and academic journeys.
  • To introduce students to meditation practices that facilitate mental calmness and clarity.
  • To assist students in finding a balance between material, ethical, and spiritual aspects of their lives.
  • To inspire and support inner change and personal growth, helping students manage competing goals and pressures effectively.
