Sri Chinmoy is a miraculous model of the abundance in the creative life, and I can only hope that I may someday participate in that cosmic fountain of stillness and profound energy which he inhabits. (31 October 1977) What power is in this man’s music! It’s incredible. Sri Chinmoy written a counterpoint like Bach. Every phrase goes with every other phrase. My musical spirit is very, very deeply impressed. (21 March 1979)

I was moved by your music, and especially the esraj. The instrument seems to me to express so beautifully the essence of India. The esraj has the sound of a great, winding river, a force of nature, more ancient and deeper than the mind of any individual. (19 November 1997)
