We extend all our love and prayers to the sangha of Sri Chinmoy. May all continue to feel his blessings, guidance and spiritual presence always. OM Shanthi.
Last 6 years I was not involved in Sri chinmoy centar activity but I was wholeheartedly involved from 1991-2001.
Sri Chinmoy, my Beloved Guru, gave me peace of mind, joy of heart, love of life and humanity, determination to achive goals I set, in one word He made me a man ready for the wide word. My deep, deep, deep, infinite gratitude to the Greatest Spiritual Master of all time, born and yet to be born. I love you Guru and will love you forever.
I know that life and dead are just two rooms. You are now in that other room and your disciples will simply continue your beautifull work for the better world. No sorrow, no worry, no fear, no doubt, only joy, only love, only will power and courage. I salute You and bow to Thee with most humility.
I am infinitely proud and at the same time infinitely humble and grateful to have shared my lifetime on earth with this luminous person whose seeds of peace will one day germinate in humanity’s heart, thank you dear Sri Chinmoy. It is up those who continue on this earthly plane to carry on his mission, now ours.
My sincere condolations to the whole SCMT – Sri Chinmoy has found his personal final peace!
Thank you Guru you gave me inner and outer inspiration of my life. I gratitude to you Guru. You will be my Guru all my life.
A good example never dies, and I wish more people (particularly Christians and alleged Christians) would follow his. Religion shouldn’t divide us… if it does, it’s bad religion, pure and simple.
Namaste
Dearest Guru and God , thankyou , with all that I am and all that I have. You are the best part of me; the greatest gift of my life.
Gratitude, gartitude, gratitude for the happy 9 years together in this incarnation! Guru, you are always our sweetness, joy, peace, inspiration, hope and promise! We love you.
Though I was not invloved in the center; I have always admired his followers and their sence of peace.I live in the Jamaica Hills area where Sri Chinmoy also lived and have been very fourtunate to see him once at a local resturant that a group of his devotees operate. He will be truly missed; Peace be unto all.
Although He was not my Guru I admire and respect Him as one of the gratest spiritual leaders and geniuses of our times. I cannot feel anything else but an immense gratitude for everything He has done for every and each of us.
Guru we are loving you!!! And happy to share this love with others!!! We are so grateful for the God Light which You are bringing into our heart. These days the ocean of seeker ‘ grateful teers will make our world more kind.
I saw Sri Chinmoy in Chicago in summer 2002, and found it be be a very memorable experience. He has touched a lot of people, and his memory will endure, especially his feats of strength. RIP
Remembering your illumining teachings, all the inspiration, with grattitude.
“These tears are not for you, but for myself for I have not yet reached the Mahasamadhi” said Gauthama Buddha’s disciple.
I am sad to hear of Sri Chinmoy’s passing, although iI never met him. He seemed like a man of great power and love. We need more men like him, to guide us though sadness.
We at Sri Chinmoy News, on behalf of all the students of Sri Chinmoy and those who treasured him dearly, would like to offer our heartfelt gratitude to those who have posted.
Some of the posts come from people of different spiritual traditions, and are a touching testament to the fact that the goal of harmony and oneness between all of mankind that Sri Chinmoy worked so hard for is one that is shared by people of all faiths, cultures and walks of life.
We will try to provide as many updates to this blog as possible as events unfold.
Once again, thank you for your support and heart’s goodwill at this time.
I am forever grateful to Guru for being able to spend a decade of my life in his physical presence.
He gave so much inspiration, joy and meaning to my life and will continue for eternity.
Jai Guru
Dear Guru, thank you for all the things that You have done for the world, for the universe, for God.
You are immortal, Your Manifestation is immortal.
You are the Hope of my life, Inspiration of my life, Aspiration of my life and The Goal of my life.
I bow to Thee.
Since 1986 I have had a picture of this inspiring and inspired man, this Avatar of Peace, in my home; and privileged too on a number of occasions to have met and experienced his unique presence.
It was life changing.
Sri Chinmoy’s abiding love, compassion and humility is indelibly etched on my life experience and, like so many others, I owe a debt of gratitude for his life.
In particular for imparting his eternal values of oneness, for his teachings and for his total understanding of the human condition.
My hope for us all is that the Smile of the Beyond which is now his will soon be enjoyed by all humanity.
I have no words to express how sincerely grateful I am with the Supreme, for the blessing to know Guru, He change my life, two years ago… He is a True Spiritual Master, who dedicate his luminous life to inspire us, through music, poetry, sports and many many things, to live an enthusiasm fulfilling life, and serve with love at the Supreme in all. Thank you Master for your Wisdom, Onenesses, Happiness and Self-transcendent life… that is who I´m remembered you, My Beloved Supreme. My life is and always will be at your service.
Guru, your work, your message and your peaceful heart live on. Thank you for all you have given us.
I AM HAPPY 15 YEARS TOGETHER WITH GURU.
YOU TEACH ONLY POSITIVE THINGS,PEACE,JOY,
ENTHUSIASM.LIVE IN HARMONY AND ONENESS.

Sri Chinmoy was a great example of the harmony between body and spirit and strived sleeplessly for a world founded on peace and Harmony.
We feel saddened by the abrupt loss, but, remain deeply enrinched by his life and works.
Many Thanks to the kind words of the visitors to this site, – at a time when it is difficult to express our inner feelings.

My personal condolences to my friends in the Sri Chinmoy Marathon team. You have always had a smile on your face. Please keep it.
I want to express my strong feeling of gratitude for my time as Sri Chinmoy´s student. How inspiring and loving he was. His achievements are astonishing and his love of mankind and tireless work for peace is just so beautiful.

Everywhere You walked, will be Holy land,
Your beauty and perfection shall be eternal,
May my heart forever mourn You,
Teach my eyes the art of seeing beyond physical,
Were You forever belong…
I’m you and you are me from all where to every where, from ever to ever, and for that i can be only extremely grateful and happy.
I remember knowing Guru from the time I was a child — I lived directly up the street from him on 85th drive. I remember mostly, his warm and engaging smile when he would be on his walking regimes and wave to me. He was always very kind to the neighborhood children!
I now live out of state, and just received the sad word of his passing. He is in my thoughts and prayers, as is the entire community of Sri Chinmoy’s followers.
May God bless you all at this time of loss. Be at peace; he will continue to guide and inspire you!
Many blessings, Donna
The gratitude i feel at having come to New York to see my dear guru, Sri Chinmoy for the first time this August, will be with me forever. Thank-you Guru for the many many blessings I recieved and for the years of wisdom-light that you have given to our world. Peace.
He inspires
As a comet in the evening sky.
Dear Teacher,
Although I did not know you, your radiance reverberates forever in the hearts of my friends who did. I cannot wait to meet all the others, for I feel a part of your tribe of love and light and peace. Truly your legacy is immortally enshrined in the now and future human spirit.
A great soul warrior in the inner worlds,
A smiling child of love in the heart-world of Universe,
allow me not to forget You.
Sri Chinmoy and all his followers have been a great inspiration and support to all of us in multiday running. May his example of peacefulness and determination live long in the future.
I was not a follower of Sri Chinmoy, but years ago, when I lived in Boston, he came to play at a local cathedral and I went and heard. In that part of the world, to hear and see anyone with a scrap of celeb status costs an arm and a leg, but Sri Chinmoy played for free. He spoke before playing, saying that his purpose there was not to amaze us with musicianship, but to facilitate our meditation, so meditate I did while he played. I could say that I enjoyed the experience, but I understand that enjoyment was not his purpose.
I am saddened by his passing. He was one decent chap.
I WAS DEEPLY TOUCHED WITH HIS MESSAGES ON VARIETY OF SUBJECTS. HE HAD IN DEPTH UNDERSTANDING OF ANCIENT SPIRITUAL LITERATURE-HE HAS DONE A GREAT JOB OF BRINGING IT IN THE LIGHT FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE ENTIRE MANKIND.
MY HEARTIEST TRIBUTES!

Diving from Sri Chinmoy’s Platform
Timid toes touch shallow shoals of bliss.
In the vast, bottomless river of the Divine,
Mother and Sri Aurobindo coax us
From somnambulist shores.
Teaching us to swim,
They carry us floating through floods,
Drowning only our fears.
Surfing on his flute,
Sri Chinmoy says the water is warm.
I dive in—
Breathing the ambrosian waters.
Love has only one purpose – to bring God to earth. Sri Chinmoy was the greatest exponent of real unconditional love the world has ever seen.
i will always and always feel my heart is his and his, mine.
Love and love and love to all my brothers and sisters in oneness and love.
We will celebrate his life and the wave he has created for thousands and thousands of years.
For 35 years I was supremely privileged to be in our Beloved Guru’s ‘Golden Boat’, as he lovingly referred to his Path. From the time I joined at the age of 19 until now, he was truly not only my spiritual guide but my father and my dearest friend . When I accepted his path, he told me that there was nothing on earth or in heaven that he would not do for me, and he never broke that promise. I came to understand that this love was completely unconditional, and that this was a promise he made to everyone. Even though he is no longer on the physical plane, I know and feel that this unconditional love he has for all his spiritual children and for all of humanity is a force that will continue to shine within all our lives. On the outer plane I will miss him terribly, but on the inner plane he will be eternally with us. MY gratitude to all those who have taken the time to honour this most special Being. He was unique among men. My gratitude infinite for His Light that will never dim.
Although Sri Chinmoy was not my spiritual leader, I have witnessed over the past 20 years, his profound gracious, loving and peacful effect he has on his followers. My only wish is that Sri Chinmoy be an exception, and be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize this year, that he is a front runner for, posthumously. My sincere condolences to all his disciples worldwide, with extra heartfelt sympathies for his disciples in San Francisco.
Saw Sri Chinmoy lift a man sitting in a chair at Harvard in 1988, always have and always will remember that. Saddened by his passing.
I’m sending my love to Sri Chinmoy and to all his
disciples from Sedona, Arizona. I was playing harp
today at an opening Peace Ceremony & thinking of
Sri Chinmoy and how his heart is so full of Love and
Light that he was promoted for all of his Great Work
and Love he always Shares with One and All in so many
beautiful ways.
I feel that Sri Chinmoy is now on his Cosmic Vacation
I’m very sure he is very happy and wants us all to be happy too.
He is still with us only on another vibration. We are so very blessed to have all his beautiful blessings.
I am so happy to have met him and have been so graced and inspired by him in so many ways.
One is both saddened and inspired that Sri Baba Chinmoy is now outside…looking from the light of infinite wisdom…into our mortal and painful darkness of humanity…
May his honour…his esteemed patronage continue from beyond our mortal bonds.
Love…
