Welcome ...
There exists within every human being a vast resource of goodness, creativity and peace. The simple and natural art of meditation enables us to freely access and bring to the fore this wonderful potentiality that will permeate, enrich and improve every aspect of our lives. And it is this inner development, through the regular practice of meditation, that brings us abiding joy, satisfaction and peace.
This website provides information about the free meditation classes and workshops offered by members of the New Zealand Sri Chinmoy Centre in Nelson, New Zealand. The Sri Chinmoy Centre is a community service organisation that has been offering free meditation classes and workshops, concerts, running events and a wide variety of inspirational initiatives throughout New Zealand since 1980.
At the request of our meditation teacher Sri Chinmoy, our meditation classes and workshops are free of charge in the spirit of oneness and peace. Our goal is to inspire others to explore their inner potential and to discover the many positive and practical benefits of meditation.
"Meditation means conscious self-expansion. Meditation means one's conscious awareness of the transcendental Reality. Meditation means the recognition or the discovery of one's own true self. ... If we practice meditation daily, then we can rest assured that the problems of our life, inner and outer, are solved."
– Sri Chinmoy. (Source)

I Meditate And Meditate
I meditate and meditate
And meditate
So that I can swim fast,
Very fast,
Against my mind's
Desire-current.
