A Flame in my Heart
Celestial experiences
In the Right Place, At the Right Time
The Inner Fire
First steps on the Spiritual Path - short stories
Changing the course of our life-river
The Master we were looking for
A Dream
"You have to know who your spiritual Father is, and who your spiritual Uncle is."
A 40-Year Blessing
A real living Master
A waterfall of love and joy
Connecting the dots
Filled with deepest joy
I became conscious and that was it
I just knew from the moment I saw him
I saw how all things are connected
I simply have more joy in life
I want what he has
If a little meditation can give you this kind of experience...
In the Whirlwind of Life
Looking for Satisfaction
Meeting Sri Chinmoy for the first time
More to Life
My first Guru
My inner calling
Now you are in the boat
Regaining My Inner Joy
Saints and Angels
So much longing, for something
Tears of gratitude
The Inner Promise
The day when everything began
The goal to be happy
The perfect hobby
The true meaning of life
This is where I have to go
What I had been searching for
Where it always had wanted me to be
You only have to keep your eyes and ears open
