Chinmaya Mission Guwahati Kicks Off 5-Day Rainbow Summer Camp for Kids

The Chinmaya Mission Guwahati began its much-anticipated five-day Rainbow Camp 2025 on Monday, bringing together more than 65 enthusiastic children for a vibrant summer learning experience. Held at the Mission’s premises in Six Mile, the camp is aimed at instilling values through fun-filled activities, music, and creative exploration.

The camp was formally inaugurated by Miss Dimple Baruah, Joint Director of the Assam Administrative Staff College, Khanapara, and Secretary (Addl. Charge) of the State Vigilance Commission. She was joined by Brahmacharini Ananya Chaitanya, the Resident In-charge of Chinmaya Mission Guwahati, along with Mission members and volunteers.

This year’s theme, “GOAT – Greatest of All Time”, is designed to encourage children to discover their inner greatness through daily sessions aligned with each letter of the acronym. On Day 1, the focus was on the letter “G”, Guru. Children were introduced to the importance of the Guru through storytelling, devotional singing, and interactive discussions.

One of the day’s highlights was the Guru Paduka Yatra, where young campers walked barefoot to a nearby location, carrying symbolic paper padukas (sacred footwear) on their heads while singing Guru bhajans. The unique experience left a deep impression on the children, many of whom were participating in such a traditional spiritual activity for the first time.

The children also enjoyed action songs and bhajans, adding a musical rhythm to the day's spiritual learning. To ensure a joyful and comfortable experience, participants were provided with camp bags, stationery supplies, and were served snacks twice during the day.

The energy and enthusiasm among the children were palpable, with many eagerly looking forward to returning for more engaging activities in the coming days of the Rainbow Camp.
