Meditation functions with Sri Chinmoy

Meditations with Sri Chinmoy were a wonderful mix of silent meditation, music, poetry, prayer, creativity and humour - plus stories and wisdom from the Master himself.

Especially in the years before Sri Chinmoy passed away in 2007, many students took notes of their experiences during meditation functions.
