All the Branches of the Life-Tree
A short talk by Sri Chinmoy
at PS 86 in Jamaica, New York
I shall be lifting a few sumo wrestlers this Saturday in Toronto.
This moment, music-world; next moment, wrestling-world; the following moment, spiritual world. The birds fly from one branch of the tree to another. Flying gives birds tremendous joy. Like the birds, we shall never remain always on the same branch of the life-tree.
The life-tree has many, many, many, many branches. With our aspiration and dedication, we shall be covering all the branches of life. We shall have to nourish them and give them joy. We shall have to make them feel that we are always ready to be part and parcel of all the branches of the life-tree.
These branches make us not only perfect, but also complete, complete, complete in every sense of the term.

My God-Hunger-Cry
a rhyming poem
by Sri Chinmoy
I was stunned when I heard that God still loves me —
And what is more, He will eternally love me.
