Posted on by Yatkara

This concert was part of a series of seven performances in different cities across Guatemala in late February and early March 2025. At each stop, the audience was wonderfully engaged, and they joined in singing a Spanish song to close the concert.

The group performing these songs arranges and performs music by Sri Chinmoy (1931-2007), a spiritual Master, musician, writer, and artist. In this video, you’ll also hear songs Sri Chinmoy composed specifically for Guatemala.

Guatemala Guatemala Guatemala
Your flower-pure life blossoms in your glowing heart.
Friendship with all in a twinkling you create.
In silence deep to the World-Lord you bow.
Sri Chinmoy
