Arya Samaj Greater Houston Arya Samaj Greater Houston founded in 1991, aligned itself with the mission of Krinvanto Vishvamaryam Arya Samaj does not believe in Idol Worship.

Arya Samaj,founded by Swami Dayanand Saraswati on April 10, 1875 in Bombay (now Mumbai), is a social reform movement. Contrary to some misconceptions, it is not a religion or a new sect in Hindu religion. Swami Dayanand brought together a number of concerned members of the society to eliminate the ills prevalent within the Hindu Society in the 19th century. The primary mission of the Arya Samaj is to eradicate Ignorance (Agyan), Indigence or Poverty (Abhav) and Injustice (Anayay) from this earth. This mission is enshrined in the ten Niyams or Principles (listed on the next page). The four Vedas, Rig-Veda, Yajur Veda, Sam Veda and Atharva Veda, are the Source of Guidance (described in the Invocation section). Arya Samaj believes in one God, known by name Om, who is Omnipresent, Omnipotent, Omniscient, Source of all Intelligence and Bliss, Merciful and Just. One of the main missions of the Arya Samaj has been education. Arya Samaj is one of the largest providers of education in India, from pre-school to graduate level. Arya Samaj especially emphasizes the education of women. As Indians moved away from the borders of India to settle in other lands, several carried with them the principles of Arya Samaj. They established branches of Arya Samaj in their adopted countries in order to continue the good work, to educate their offspring about the rich history, cultural heritage and traditions of India, and to inspire them to carry on the beliefs and practices of Arya Samaj.

Guru Sri Chaitanya to Explore Human Consciousness, Wisdom and Intelligence

As artificial intelligence rapidly transforms the way people learn, work and communicate, an important question is emerging: What does it mean to awaken and develop human intelligence?

Houston-area residents will have an opportunity to explore this question with Guruji Sri Chaitanya on Friday, October 9, from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. at Arya Samaj of Greater Houston.

The program, “Awakening Intelligence in the Age of AI,” will explore themes of consciousness, self-inquiry, meditation and the relationship between ancient wisdom and modern life.
Guru Sri Chaitanya has devoted more than 36 years to the study and practice of spiritual traditions. His journey encompasses Sri Vidya, Advaita Vedanta, meditation and yoga, Ta**ra, Jyotisha, Sanskrit and Kashmir Shaivism. His studies have also included Physics, Philosophy, Psychology and Mathematics, allowing him to approach ancient teachings through both traditional and contemporary perspectives.

Sri Vidya, a profound spiritual tradition centered on the Divine Mother, integrates elements of Ta**ra, Yoga and Vedanta. Through his teachings, Guru Sri Chaitanya seeks to make these traditions accessible to sincere seekers while encouraging deeper inquiry into the nature of consciousness and the Self.

The Houston event is part of his September–November 2026 U.S. journey, which includes talks, Satsangs, question-and-answer sessions, university engagements and community gatherings.
The event is sponsored by PraKrisht LLC, a nonprofit dedicated to the upliftment of humanity, in collaboration with Arya Samaj of Greater Houston
