CMH ONLINE FAMILY SATSANGA ON APRIL 5

The situation with COVID-19 virus continues to escalate and authorities have asked us to observe the “Stay-in-Home” order. To honor this order, Chinmaya Mission Houston has decided to move the classes online until further notice. The study groups, Gita chanting training and the 12th grade classes are already being conducted online.

On Sunday, April 5, we will have a special online class, on Zoom, for our Chinmaya families. It will be a unique class for both adults and children together! Please do not miss it!

The session will start at 10:00 AM CST sharp. Please login 5 minutes early and be seated comfortably. Below is the link to the Zoom session:

Topic: Chinmaya Mission Houston Adult and Bala Vihar Class
Time: April 5, 2020 10:00 AM Central Time (US and Canada)

NOTE Current members will receive online class connection details through email

For the satsanga to be successful, we need everyone’s cooperation. Please read and follow the Zoom session etiquette given below.

Zoom Session Etiquette

1. Please have only one device (computer, iPad, smart phone etc) per household

2. Everyone should be punctual; they should join five minutes before the start time and attend until the class ends.

3. Always join the class with video ON. Please be sure your family can be seen clearly.

4. Keep audio on mute.

5. Keep your device fully charged. Use a stand/support for your device for stable video. Do not frequently move the device as it can distract the teacher and other participants.

6. Sit in a clean, proper place (study or prayer room if possible) with good lighting and minimum disturbances or distractions.

7. Satsanga is a place of learning and worship, so please dress appropriately and be presentable as you do for regular CMH class. No pajamas!

8. Likewise, NO eating during class! Finish breakfast/snack before you join the class.

9. Respect for Self is Respect for Others. Children should be attentive and respectful in class.

10. Be active and refrain from multitasking while you are in the class. Do NOT walk around, do NOT engage in other side conversations or activities while you are in class.

11. Treat these sessions with respect just like the regular onsite classes.

Starting April 12, we will have adult and Bala Vihar classes separately. We will send the details in the next week’s email for online classes.
