Sri Chinmoy meets with Bill Rodgers, champion marathon runner, in Boston, Massachusetts.
“For so long I have dreamed of meeting you…. Whoever has a large heart is the winner. You are the champion of champions, for God has given you a very big heart…. You stand for everything that is good in the running community.” — Sri Chinmoy
“I have heard so much about you – your books, your running…. It is a good sport; it has been good to me. I’ll always keep running. I’m sure you will too.” — Bill Rodgers
Sri Chinmoy launches the Peace Run with a silent meditation at New York’s Battery Park, across from the Statue of Liberty.
