Sri Chinmoy Tribute

Sri Chinmoy spoke and wrote a lot about the possibility of a better more fulfilling future for mankind, but it was his own personal example, his own 'walking the talk', that made the possibility real in the eyes of his students and friends.

From his landmark achievements like his weightlifting feats or his prolific poetic output, right down to little gestures like a smile or an apparently off-the-cuff remark which later proves to have enormous significance in the life of the addressed individual, every action came from a source of vastness and stillness inside him which like a magnet drew the higher and deeper parts of your own being to the fore.

Being with him, you experienced first-hand that all of these nebulous concepts like the soul, Eternity, inner peace - concepts which hover around in the mind incapable of being proved or disproved - were for real.

I would offer a final thank you, but it is not finished. I have still so much to learn and you have still so much to teach me. I can only, from the bottom of my heart, thank you for what you have done so far.
