Articles of Faith

The Sri Chinmoy Centre has been my life, my journey and my home for many, many years. I hope these pages offer a small glimpse into the joy, the grace and the wonder that is Sri Chinmoy.


The following is a selected list of hitherto unpublished articles that I have written about Sri Chinmoy over a number of decades. Some are old and some are new but, in one sense at least, they will all remain timeless for they are snapshots from the life of a great Spiritual Master. And, however inadequately they capture in words the true essence of his being, they are a humble attempt to record a few of the precious instances from the flow of eternity in which he lived.
