Chinmaya Mission New York
Chinmaya Mission Centres and Acharyas WorldwideDear All,Hari Om!
The internet is no longer a place to access information but has transformed itself into an online life for most. And what is life, if it is not dynamic, full of choices and constantly connected?
We are proud to launch the new Chinmaya Mission website, Chinmayamission.com, a virtual home for the global Chinmaya Mission family, providing 24 x 7 connectivity, dynamic interface and lots of customizing options. Please see attached photographs of the launch by Pujya Guruji, Swami Tejomayanandaji on 27th May 2014.
The earlier Chinmaya Mission Website already had the following features:
- Events upload and Registration
- News
- Itinerary of Swami Tejomayananda
- Acharya and Centre Label Download
- Photo Galleries
- Articles
- Basic Shopping Cart & Donation
Though the website is itself was feature rich, the new website brings a whole new experience. The New Key Features are -
1. Information Integration
a. Global Presence – an integrated global website helps the users to grasp the magnitude of the presence of Chinmaya Mission across the globe. The integration of all Chinmaya Mission websites under one global site will help users to know about all activities from place. It will increase the overall e-footprint and raise the global ranking of Chinmaya Mission.
b. One Website – One Look – The website will serve as a platform where all the integrated local sites shall be provided with a seamless access to the contents of global website (managed centrally) within their local website making their site truly Local yet Global.
c. Information sharing by Acharyas and centres is made easy with the help of a global site. Now each Acharya can individually upload his or her itinerary. A central site for all information of events, itinerary, and news will make the Chinmaya Mission websites free of redundancy, outdated content, duplication and errors
d. Dynamic content – the new website has integrated Chinmaya Mission YouTube Channel and Chinmaya Internet Channel allowing access to talks, bhajans, satsangs, etc. from the website itself. Additionally, the new site has a lot of letters, thought provoking articles and messages of Pujya Gurudev, Pujya Guruji and other Acharyas. Almost each page carries a dynamic photo gallery supplemented with videos to give a visual appeal of various activities of Chinmaya Mission.
2. Outreach
a. Chinmaya Mission Publications - The shopping cart in the new website is one of the best available online. It caters to our present online sales needs and is highly customizable and scalable to accommodate our future requirements. It will also provide links to e-books on various e-stores.
b. Social Media integration – the new website integrates facebook, twitter and other social media from the Chinmaya Mission Centre & Acharya page itself enabling users to share information and inspiration instantaneously.
c. Career Page – to serve the growing need in Chinmaya Mission for dedicated manpower, the new website has a careers page that will display employment and seva opportunities in Chinmaya Mission worldwide, thereby giving our Mission Members as well as service oriented aspirants an opportunity to combine service and career development.
3. Support for Service & Sadhana
a. Spiritual Miles – the new site provides registered users with an aid to track their spiritual sadhana and earn spiritual miles, by maintaining an online log of their daily sadhana. The more the miles earned, the more will be the enthusiasm to pursue daily sadhana.
b. Donations – the new site presents donors with donation categories instead of projects. This helps the donor to know all projects running under one category; in turn the donor may want to donate more amounts or donate to more than one project. Shortly, enthusiastic donors can carry out fundraising by creating their own page, setting targets and raising donation online for various projects
c. Volunteer Registration - event planners can now make use of the volunteer registration facility and keep a record of the volunteers in their centre.
d. CM worldwide database – the website will prove vital in creating a global database of Chinmaya Mission members along with their preferences, wanting to actively work for Pujya Gurudev’s Vision.
