Philosophy and Practice
At the heart of the Sri Chinmoy Centre is the understaning that meditation is a tool for personal transformation. Sri Chinmoy taught that through regular meditation, we can quiet the mind, awaken our inner potential, and cultivate the strength to face life’s challenges with grace and peace. By embracing simplicity, love, and compassion, we can not only transform ourselves but also make a positive impact on the world.
Sri Chinmoy also emphasised the importance of physical fitness as part of spiritual growth, encouraging balance between body, mind, and spirit. Many Sri Chinmoy Centres host athletic events like the Sri Chinmoy Oneness-Home Peace Run, an international torch relay promoting global friendship and understanding.
