RAIN, RAIN, DON’T GO AWAY!

During an informal gathering in Sri Chinmoy’s back yard the evening of July 5, it began to rain.

Instead of inviting the disciples into his house, as he often does, or using his spiritual powers to stop the rain, as he has frequently done in similar situations in the past, the Master asked his disciples to meditate with him.

He requested those who had taken shelter in the garage or under umbrellas to either come out into the rain or go home.

The Master and the disciples remained meditating in the chill downpour for about an hour. Then the Master gave out prasad and hot food was served.
