Sri Chinmoy's clear understanding and interpretation of his own inner experiences
is reflected in the wholeness of his production. Watching the unfoldment
of this work is like seeing a thing in nature responding to its own inner
laws of evolution.

Spontaneity is there, but it is contained by the overriding unity of
organic growth, which imparts to the greatest creations their essential integrality.
Only a sustained inspiration could be responsible for the ceaseless flow
of Sri Chinmoy's imagination.

 
Filled with God, like the Vedic poets of old, he sings of the most sublime
mystical experiences with such radiant simplicity that they become near and
living; he addresses the spiritual doubts of our age with confidence and
assurance; he transforms the private occasion of poetry into a public event
and places the poetic spirit once more on an equal footing with the sage,
the visionary and the prophet.
