Divine Enterprises

"Divine Enterprise" is the term used by Sri Chinmoy for a business endorsed by him, and run by his students.

A Divine Enterprise allows the workers to work in an uplifting environment which enhances their spiritual growth and encourages a high level of dedicated service to its customers. Service plays a very significant role in Sri Chinmoy’s life, and in the lives of his students. In Sri Chinmoy’s own words:

“Work cheerfully, soulfully
And devotedly
With a spirit of oneness.
That is true spiritual service.”

Of course, Sri Chinmoy’s students work in a very wide variety of fields; by no means all of them serve full-time in a Divine Enterprise.

Wherever your Lord Supreme
Asks you to work,
That particular place
Should be Heaven to you.

In the UK we have a number of Divine Enterprises some of which are shown in this section:
