Visitors explored Sri Chinmoy’s books — from poetry to meditative guides — and discovered how his message of simplicity, sincerity, and self-transcendence remains relevant today. The lively yet peaceful setting reflected the spirit of his work: inviting, contemplative, and grounded in everyday life. Through reading, conversation, and meditation, attendees experienced not just a publisher’s stall, but a window into a philosophy of aspiration and transformation.

About Sri Chinmoy’s Books & Philosophy

Sri Chinmoy was a spiritual teacher, artist, musician, and athlete. His hundreds of books include Sport and Meditation and 222 Meditation Techniques, covering inner stillness, meditation, poetry, and philosophy. At the heart of his teachings is the idea that every human activity — sport, art, music, study, or service — can become a path of self-transcendence. His philosophy encourages moving beyond outer limitations toward inner freedom and expressing it in everyday life. Through his books, music, and workshops, readers can deepen their inner life and open their hearts.

Sharing the Teachings

The book fair highlighted Sri Chinmoy’s works in a public literary space, connecting culture and spirituality.
