The Boston Sri Chinmoy Group has been offering free meditation classes in Boston and Cambridge since 1975. We have also sponsored running races in keeping with Sri Chinmoy’s appreciation for sports. Over the years, our members have typically included health care professionals, office workers, computer programmers, administrators and owners of restaurants and retail shops.
Sri Chinmoy offered many lectures, concerts and public meditations in Boston, including a public meditation (in 1978) and later an organ concert (in 1988) at Trinity Church. He also offered lectures at colleges in Amherst and on Cape Cod.
Most of his Boston-area appearances were at Harvard, however, most notably a series of seven lectures at Harvard Divinity School in the spring of 1975 published as Earth-Bound Journey, Heaven-Bound Journey.
Sri Chinmoy’s students often run cafes and other businesses where members of the public have a chance to take free meditation classes, browse Sri Chinmoy’s books and hear his music, and generally soak up the peaceful atmosphere. Our vegetarian restaurant, The Oneness-Fountain-Heart, formerly in Somerville’s Teele Square, is now located in Queens, New York.
As part of our community service, we help to create gift bags for homeless children distributed by Mother Teresa’s Sisters of Charity. One of our members, Ganapati Coleman, is instrumental in bringing free meditation classes and the World Harmony Run to several countries in Africa.
