New York

Sri Chinmoy lived in the New York area from 1964 to 2007 and there are several hundred students currently living in the Tri-State area of New York, Connecticut and New Jersey that regularly meditate together in Queens. Also students vist from all over the world and like our host city, New York, we are truly an international family.

A number of enterprises, including restaurants, health food stores, flower shops, gift stores and boutiques have been established over the decades that service our local community in spiritual surroundings. Most feature blue exteriors, a colour traditionally associated with meditation: the spiritual foundation that guides our daily lives.

We also offer meditation classes for new seekers, so please contact us for more information, and visit our New York Meditation page and extensive meditation section.

Running and sports balance our spiritual lives: contact the Sri Chinmoy Marathon Team for New York race schedule and our weekly two-mile self-transcendence races in the New York area!
