Dear Sri Chinmoy:
Great Congratulations! Word has reached me that on April 13, you celebrated the
35th anniversary of your arrival in the United States of America.
As an accomplished poet, author, artist, musician, athlete and spiritual leader, you
have lived your life to the fullest and your achievements are innumerable. Whether it be
your service to the UN, the Sri Chinmoy Oneness-Home Peace Run, the Peace-Blossoms,
or your numerous university and literary awards, you have not only been tremendously
successful, but inspirational.
Your tireless efforts to promote peace around the world is not only exemplary, but
testimony to the indomitable human spirit. May you continue to change the world with
your simple message of peace and love.
1 close with a quote from Benedict Spinoza that | feel echoes the spirit of your
teachings:
“Peace is not an absence of war, it is a virtue, a state of mind, a disposition for
benevolence, confidence, justice.”
Happy Anniversary!
Sincerely, ,
