I agree this is an excellent poem with a remarkable commentary. At Poetry Chaikhana http://www.poetry-chaikhana.com/ Ivan Granger offers a daily poem from...
Dear Terri, "Clapping with one hand" is part of a Zen koan. A Zen master would give koans to his students as exercises in going beyond the confines of the...
By Sri Chinmoy, extract from "Grace" p 40-41-42: If I can "If I can perfect my faith, Thy Grace is sure to come. The more I give to Thee, The more I absorb Thy...
"Unless I can convince myself That my Lord's Grace Is everything, I shall not be happy And I shall never make Anybody happy." Sri Chinmoy (Seventy Seven...
Richard, I am wondering where to find the commentary on the daily poems that Ivan posts on his site. Also, I might mention, to find Ivan's poems, it is...
Good-bye to our dearest Brother and Friend, Ongkar Your undying dedication and enthusiasm will always help light my path. May all the angels carry you to the...
I liked this story very much too. I think it takes a lot of courage to type in something like that and send it away off down the phone lines where anyone can...
Newness has been a theme in many posts before. I always love how Sri Chinmoy encourages us to move forward with fresh enthusiasm, energy and inspiration and...
Hi Bayer, May I also join in welcoming you as a new member of the Inspiration Group. I remember that there were several Mongolian students of Sri Chinmoy in...
Hi Terri, It might have been a little confusing that I accidentally pasted in the same quote from Dysinger's article for both the third and fourth step of the...

Hi Niriha, Hmmm....after reading that your mother had an interest in Buddhism and was introducing koans to you as a child, I was about to reply that you were...
One of the most valuable lessons I have learnt from Sri Chinmoy is the ability to forget. Sri Chinmoy always advises and encourages his students to forget bad...
