I read it during my meditation

I meditate daily and often I will read parts of this book during or before or after my meditation. I can feel the truth of what Sri Chinmoy is saying in my very bones. It has really helped me to keep focused on what is real.

Remarkable text recommended for everyone!

"The Wisdom of Sri Chinmoy" is perhaps the most concisely organized text of modern spirituality available. Compiled expertly, the book is an anthology drawn from the writings of this remarkable teacher of peace numbering over 1000. The book is arranged as an encyclopedia, with topics such as Love, Self-Realization and more common topics such as Death, Worries and Problems. Each topic consists of questions answered by Sri Chinmoy. The strength of the books lies not in its format, however, but in its content.Sri Chinmoy's answers are so simple, yet powerful. They offer a rare glimpse into the wisdom of an enlightened person, a wisdom which resonates with clarity and brilliance but is at the same time quite practical and applicable.Any seeker of peace can benefit tremendously from this book which offers insights into the spiritual life and the life beyond problems and worries that few texts offer.A must for anyone interested in achieving a bit more tranquility, balance and happiness in life.

One of the most enlightening, most inspiring books...

This is by far one of the most inspiring, most enlightening books I had the luck to read (and re-read) in my life. The selection of questions to Sri Chinmoy is very well done, and the answers are strikingly simple, yet they go straight to the heart of the reader. Many times I had to stop reading because tears were coming to my eyes, for the answer was touching my personal life so closely on an inner level, and yet so kindly and lovingly? I most enthusiastically recommend this book to anybody with the slightest interest to lead a better life, or to be inspired to discover a deeper reality.
