Since its founding in 1951, the Cultural Integration Fellowship has hosted a variety of special events on culture, religion, music, and dance. Notable past events have included lectures by such Indian scholars as Ajit Mookerjee, Amiya Chakrabarti, and Visvanath Naravane; seminars to honor birthdays of Sri Aurobindo and Mohandas Gandhi, the Buddha and Martin Luther King; showings of art by Rudolph Schaffer and Uday Sengupta; musical recitals by Ravi Shankar, Ali Akbar Khan, Zakir Hussain, and Chitresh Das; readings by Bay Area poets; and performances by young chamber musicians from China and Russia. Often the Fellowship has been the first performance site in the United States for artists who have then taken their offerings elsewhere. Besides these artists, the Fellowship and Dr. Chaudhuri's guidance also provided support to Michael Murphy, the founder of Esalen Institute, Michael Toms, the founder of the New Dimensions Radio, and other notable individuals.
