“The essence of Vedanta is that there is but one Being and that every soul is that Being in full, not a part of that Being”.

Swami Vivekananda

Ramakrishna Vedanta Society of North Carolina is dedicated to the practice and propagation of the ideals of Vedanta as presented to the modern world by Sri Ramakrishna, Sri Sarada Devi, and Swami Vivekananda.
The Society maintains a small but beautiful center near the Raleigh-Durham airport, where daily worship, regular classes, and special pujas are held.

Announcement about RKVSNC Expansion

Dear Devotees and Friends,

Recently, we joyously celebrated Sri Ramakrishna Paramhansa’s Birthday with a sacred puja led by Swami Atmajnanananda ji. Amidst divine blessings, we unveiled our ambitious plans for expansion to support our flourishing activities and devoted community.

Our vision includes establishing a new property essential for our day-to-day operations, with a budget of $1.1 million. Thanks to the unwavering support from Ramakrishna Ashram, Vedanta Center of D.C., and the generous pledges from local devotees, we’ve secured 78% of the budget.

However, to make this vision a reality, we still need approximately $300,000. Your contribution is pivotal in achieving this goal. You can donate via check in name of “ RKVSNC” or direct transfer to our expansion fund account number 008171326773 at First Citizens Bank. 

Embark on this journey of expansion with us by clicking the link below:

Donate Now   

Alternatively, you can pledge a certain amount over the next six months using the pledge form: Pledge Form.

In the event that the expansion doesn’t materialize by 2027, donors will have the option to redirect their contribution towards the maintenance of our current center or receive a refund.

Witness the inspiring announcement here: Expansion Announcement

Blessed by Swami Sarvadevananda ji and Swami Atmajnanananda ji, your contributions will help us fulfill our vision and serve humanity.

Thank you for your invaluable support! 

With profound gratitude,
Ramakrishna Vedanta Society of North Carolina
