“Let us not try to understand this music with our mind. Let us not even try to feel it with our heart. Let us simply and spontaneously allow the music-bird to fly in our heart-sky. While flying it will unconditionally reveal to us what it has and what it is. What it has is Immortality’s message and what it is is Eternity’s passage.” Sri Chinmoy (1931-2007), the celebrated spiritual teacher spent his adult life spreading music, poetry, and meditation in the West. This album serves as both soundtrack and guidebook for beginning the practice of meditation. On several tracks, Sri Chinmoy sings with sparse, simple accompaniment in his native Bengali. The liner notes are drawn from Sri Chinmoy’s writings on breath, concentration, meditation, contemplation, mantra, and gurus.
