Chinmaya Vision Programme

CVP is not an activity but a vision-inducing programme – the very spirit behind all activities in the Vidyalaya. It is not a ‘value add’, but the Vidyalaya culture. It is not portion-based, but attitude-based. The Chinmaya Vision Programme is what makes A Chinmaya Educational Institution a “School With A Difference”. It concretizes Pujya Gurudev Swami Chinmananadji’s Vision of Education.

Transforming Education with Vision and Values.The Chinmaya Vision Programme (CVP) is the heart of the Chinmaya Education Movement. Rooted in the timeless wisdom of Indian culture and inspired by the vision of Swami Chinmayananda, the programme aims to offer students a holistic education that goes beyond academic excellence. It nurtures the body, mind, and spirit, shaping responsible individuals who can contribute meaningfully to society.

CVP is built upon four essential pillars:

I. Integrated Development

Fostering physical, mental, intellectual, and spiritual growth in students. At the heart of the Chinmaya Vision Programme (CVP) lies the pillar of Integrated Development, which aims to nurture every child into a complete individual—strong in body, clear in mind, and rooted in spirit.

  • Physical Development: Students are encouraged to care for their physical well-being through regular exercise, yoga, games, and healthy habits. A fit body lays the foundation for a healthy and active life.
  • Mental Development: Through focused learning, critical thinking, and emotional awareness, CVP nurtures clarity, confidence, and resilience in students. It emphasizes the importance of self-discipline, concentration, and positive thinking.
  • Intellectual Development: It refers to the growth of a child's thinking and reasoning abilities. It helps them understand ideas, solve problems and make smart decisions. This development is important because it improves learning in all subjects, builds confidence and prepares students for future studies and careers. It also encourages curiosity and a love for learning throughout life.
  • Spiritual Development: Rooted in universal values and inspired by Indian philosophy, students are guided to discover inner peace and purpose. This includes practices like prayer, meditation, and reflection, helping them connect with their higher self and develop a strong moral compass. This holistic approach ensures that students grow into balanced individuals—physically energetic, mentally alert, and spiritually aware—ready to face life with strength and integrity.

II. Indian Culture

Instilling pride and appreciation for India's rich cultural heritage through celebrations, arts, and values.

Culture is more than just art forms, festivals and rituals. Culture is the very way of life of a race and its thinking, which makes it unique and special. Under this head, the student is given a wide exposure to the various aspects of our culture, cultural awareness and appreciation of vast literacy, artistic and scientific heritage of India, explanations of customs and traditions and cultural motivation through hobbies and projects.

  • Exposure to Indian art, literature, music, and dance to cultivate an appreciation for creative expression.
  • Learning about ancient Indian scientific advancements and their influence on modern science.
  • Participating in activities that explain the significance of Indian festivals, rituals, and traditions.
  • Engaging in cultural projects that instill a sense of pride and respect for our shared heritage.

III. Patriotism

Encouraging love and responsibility towards the nation and active participation in its progress.

This vital area of focus includes education in citizenship, civic consciousness, fostering pride in being Indian and vital national concerns such as unity in diversity. It aims at creating dedicated and committed citizens who take real pride in serving the nation. Patriotism goes beyond love for one’s country – it’s about being an active and responsible citizen. Through this programme, students develop a deep sense of pride and commitment to India’s unity and progress.

  • Educating students about their rights and duties as responsible citizens.
  • Encouraging participation in community service and civic improvement initiatives.
  • Fostering a spirit of unity in diversity by appreciating India’s multicultural ethos.
  • Instilling pride through stories of India’s freedom struggle and achievements in various fields.

IV. Universal Outlook

Promoting tolerance, respect for diversity, and a global perspective rooted in harmony.

CVP encourages students to embrace the world as one family, living in harmony with nature and recognizing their role in preserving global peace and sustainability.

  • Promoting environmental consciousness through projects and sustainable practices.
  • Learning about global issues and the importance of international cooperation.
  • Understanding the interconnectedness of science, religion, and humanity.
  • Fostering respect and empathy for diverse cultures, races, and beliefs worldwide.

At our school, CVP is seamlessly woven into the curriculum and co-curricular activities. Through various initiatives—value-based assemblies, cultural events, community outreach, and reflective learning—we empower students to live with purpose and integrity.

By embracing the Chinmaya Vision Programme, we strive to mold future leaders who are not only knowledgeable but also compassionate and culturally grounded.

Feather in the CVP cap!

The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) with over 6000 schools under its wing has featured the Educational Philosophy of the Chinmaya Vidyalayas in its Value Education.Handbook for Teachers as one of the top value-based educational programmes of the country. (Refer pages 108-111 of the CBSE Value Education Handbook for Teachers)

CVP Achievements

In this aspect of CVP, students develop a sense of pride in their country and are also made aware of its weaknesses. This inspires the youth to tackle the injustices and evils of society. Each student is rooted in the conviction that he or she is an Indian first and foremost, irrespective of differences of caste, community, religion, state, or race.
