Sri Chinmoy was born in 1931 in East Bengal, India— today’s Bangladesh - Sri Chinmoy spent more than 20 years of his early life in a spiritual community in southern India.
In his poetry, Sri Chinmoy is attempting to express the inexpressible, to articulate what is beyond the scope of words.
Chinmoy is above all a poet of the inner landscape, and he never forgets that the poem is 'a finger pointing at the moon', an invitation to the silence beyond the words.

My Secret and Sacred Bird

My secret and sacred bird now flies
To meet the Spirit's vacancy.
All chaos of life today dissolved;
In me a surge of ecstasy.

Gold flames within my longing heart
Invoke the cosmos' Parent-Sun.
A tapestry of Truth unseen
Bursts forth within; the Play is begun.

My heart longs to be dissolved

In wings of air

And fly in the unhorizoned sky.

I long to open up

All my heart doors

In the delight of my liberation - life.

May my life begin

With the breath of a new hope
