1987-10-oct-05-mani-Sankar-mukherji-CKG-phot-anhata-nada-crpThe great Bengali author and novelist Mani Sankar Mukherji visited Sri Chinmoy for two days in early October. The Master honoured him Oct. 5 with a special spiritual and cultural programme.

Deeply moved, the Bengali author called his visit to Sri Chinmoy “a pilgrimage,” saying: “I went out to discover America, and here in New York I have rediscovered my own land, India.” He said of Sri Chinmoy: “I came with a doubtful mind, but I went back a deep believer.” He also commented on how fortunate he was to be one of the first Bengaiis to tell his own people of “the great Guru Sri Chinmoy.”
