Ramakrishna Mission and its sister organizations keep Neo-Vedanta alive by weaving spiritual practice into everyday service. Across India and the globe, centers run schools, hospitals and relief programs—demonstrating that self-realization and social responsibility go hand in hand.

Chinmaya Mission carries forward Swami Chinmayananda’s vision of accessible Vedanta. Study groups, youth camps and online satsangs break down Sanskrit texts into bite-sized insights. It’s like having a friendly guide showing how ancient wisdom can light up 21st-century challenges.

The Art of Living Foundation, founded by Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, marries breathwork and meditation with community projects. Its climate-action arm, Project GreenHands, planted over 20 million trees in southern India—proof that the Vedantic emphasis on “oneness” can sprout very real saplings.

Isha Foundation, led by Sadhguru, blends mysticism and entrepreneurship. From the massive Inner Engineering courses to the Cauvery Calling agroforestry campaign, it illustrates how inner transformation and environmental stewardship move in lockstep—think Gandhi meeting Google Earth.

Self-Realization Fellowship, launched by Paramahansa Yogananda, introduced millions in the West to Kriya Yoga and nondual philosophy. Annual pilgrims still flock to his Ranchi birthplace, and virtual gatherings keep his timeless essays buzzing on social media feeds.

A newer player, The Chopra Foundation, channels Vedantic ideas into modern health and wellness research. Co-founder Deepak Chopra’s “quantum healing” buzzwords sometimes raise eyebrows, yet the core message—mind-body unity—resonates with mindfulness movements at major tech firms.

On June 21, 2025, millions celebrated UN-declared International Yoga Day. In parks from Tokyo to Toronto, yoga mats unfurled under the slogan “One Earth, One Family, One Future”—a perfect echo of Neo-Vedanta’s call to transcend divisions.

Ultimately, the thread connecting these groups is a belief that the self and the cosmos are two sides of the same coin. When meditation mats, service projects and eco-initiatives come together, it isn’t just spirituality for the armchair—it’s hands-on transformation, proving that ancient Vedanta still has plenty of life in its quiver.
