Back from visiting Sri Chinmoy

have just returned from New York, where I’ve been spending the last ten days or so with my meditation teacher, Sri Chinmoy, and his students who flew in from all around the world. It has been quite an action-packed time; for sure there has been meditation (and plenty of it), but in keeping with Sri Chinmoy’s philosophy that inner progress and outer action can and must go together, there were also many singing and insrumental performances, spiritual plays, a marathon and even a circus! There is a tremendous energy present during the whole time, and I find myself getting by on much less sleep than I would normally, as I try and involve myself in as many things as possible.

The past few times I came to visit Sri Chinmoy in New York, I wrote a daily diary of goings-on both inner and outer during my stay. However this time I felt I should I just put my laptop away for a week or so and just let myself enjoy the whole experience. I daresay a few stories will emerge in the near future though.
