Founder Members/ History

Sree Narayana Mission Melbourne was formed on an auspicious Vijayadasami day in October 2011 by Sri Krishna Kumar and Sri Arun Sasidharan with the aim to propagate Guru’s philosophy and teachings, to work for universal brotherhood and to provide an unparalleled experience to its community members and to our younger generations. During the initial days, this mission was known as Sree Narayana Mission Australia. During the course of time, multiple families joined this movement. This movement was officially registered in 2013 under the name of Sree Narayana Mission Melbourne. From a modest start, the organization has grown to be one of the institutions of high reputation through the hard work of the Committee, registered members and also the good will and generosity of the wider community.
