1. Heartfulness NGO Connect – information survey

'One World One Humanity' is a shared goal of the United Nations and Shri Ram Chandra Mission. In order to fulfil this endeavour, we are exploring partnerships with institutions in the Social and Community Development Sector.

If you are working for or conducting Heartfulness programs for organisations in this sector and you are passionate about humanitarian causes, please click here to provide the information requested.

Your organisation could be an NGO, an NPO, a Charity, a Foundation, a CSR department in a corporate, a cooperative or a similar organisation. For any queries, please write to ngoconnect@heartfulness.org.

2. Physician Group

We are creating a global database to enable communication and collaboration among practicing physicians across the world. All abhyasis who are physicians are requested to fill out this Form by September 30.

3. Heartfulness Research in India

As per ICMR guidelines (2006), it is mandatory that all proposals on biomedical research involving human participants be cleared by an appropriately constituted Institutional Ethics Committee (IEC) to safeguard the welfare and the rights of the participants. The Ethics Committee is responsible for initial review of the proposed research protocol prior to study initiation and ensuring ethics compliance during the study. An independent ethics committee (IEC) has been formed in India for researchers who have no institutional attachments or work in institutions that do not have an ethics committee. Abhyasis interested in conducting a Heartfulness research study in India (who are not attached to an IEC) are requested to visit the IEC India website, review the IEC guidelines, download the proposal format and submit completed documents. Please contact iec@heartfulness.org for more information
