As instructed by Swami Chinmayananda, his disciple Atmachaitanya conducted a four-year Vedantic course from January 1985 to December 1988 in Coimbatore. The valedictory function of the course was held on January 3, 1989. An excerpt from Swamiji's address emphasizes the ever-relevant valedictory address of the Rishis, enshrined in the ancient Vedic literature, a portion of which is chanted by Atmachaitanya and his students.
