Sri Chinmoy has never written a complete overview of his philosophical viewpoint. In some ways his prolific output of prose and poetry give a glimpse into the potential limitless expression of spirituality. Each poem and aphorism adds to the depth of spiritual philosophy. At the same time the poems are purposefully short and concise helping the reader to meditate on the message of the poems.

Some selections from Seventy – Seven Thousand Service Trees volume 39

The Divine Love
Does not speak -
It only acts.

38,029

The inner hunger
Is much more intense
Than the outer hunger

With my heart
When I speak to God

38,264

Everyone, without exception
Has to sit
For the God-realisation-examination
Either in the near future
Or in the distant future

39,251

The mind path
Is, indeed,
A constant obstacle course.

39,244

No more shall I be interested
In my mind-jungle.
From now on , I shall stay always
Inside my heart-garden.

When the flowers sing
I feel a new dawn in my heart.

42,010

The children of happiness
Will create a new world.

42,007

Inspiration
Without speech
Is most powerful

42,015

Alas,
The mind never takes advice
From the heart!

42,018

No enthusiasm,
No success or progress-
Either in our outer life
Or in our inner life.

Farther than the Farthest
From your Lord Beloved Supreme,
Who Knows
Perhaps that is the time
When he is nearer than the nearest!
