Gita for the Masses is a 501(c)(3) charitable non-profit organization created to help people overcome obstacles and be victorious in life. Founded in 2010 by Jaya Jaya Myra, Gita for the Masses uses universal spiritual teachings to empower people through what Myra calls “conscious character development”: an approach that emphasizes psychological and emotional growth, and personal accountability, to achieve mind-body wellbeing.
“The key to success and victorious living is in overcoming inner limitations, preconceived notions, negativity and fear. Whatever people do not resolve inwardly, they are forced to face in outer life, which can impact and harm many people. We have a collective responsibility towards inner-transformation to create a just, sustainable and peaceful world.”
—Jaya Jaya Myra
Founding Principles
We were founded on the guiding principle that mind body spirit connection is sacred, and a birthright of every human being. In some parts of the world, sincere spiritual seekers often adopt a monastic, renunciate way of life, believing it’s too difficult to be both “worldly” and “spiritual” - we disagree.
We believe that an integral, conscious education is key to becoming successful and fulfilled in all areas of life, and that this integrated consciousness makes people aware, compassionate and of service to mankind.
We proudly support the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and actively work to support them
In order to make this guiding principle a reality, we strive for the following:
Human Education
Create a system of learning and empowerment practices that support people regardless of their cultural identity, ethnicity, religion, or spiritual beliefs, reminding people that at the end of the day, we’re all human, and we can all learn and grow together.
Interreligious Dialogue & Interfaith Harmony
Promote dialogue and education that shows people were not all that different, and that even vastly different religions and beliefs have a common underlying source of unity.
Created Sacred Space
We strive to create and curate safe and comfortable physical locations that support and promote consciousness, character development, and mind body spirit wellbeing.
Conscious Character Development
Help people identify and overcome the emotionally wounded parts of themselves, including personal shortcomings and limiting beliefs that act to sabotage prosperity and success in life, while helping people to identify and live their purpose fully.
