Sri Chinmoy was a spiritual leader, author, artist, musician, athlete and peace visionary.

He was born in the small village of Shakpura in East Bengal, India (now Bangladesh) in 1931. At the age of twelve he entered into the Sri Aurobindo Ashram, a spiritual community in South India. His ashram life was that of intense meditation, sometimes meditating up to fourteen hours a day. He also found time for writing, composing, athletics and service to his community. It was here that Sri Chinmoy achieved a high state of spiritual awakening. In 1964, following an inner calling, Sri Chinmoy moved to the West making New York City his home until his passing in 2007. In America, Sri Chinmoy immediately launched into a life of selfless-service to the world family. He led twice weekly Peace Meditations at the United Nations for over thirty years.
