Question: As spiritual souls begin incarnating psychically in the future, will India maintain the prestige of offering them to the world?
Sri Chinmoy: First let us see if those great souls choose to take incarnation on Indian soil. And if they do, it is not a matter of prestige to be able to offer these souls to the world. It is a matter of joy, a matter of happiness and a matter of inner accomplishment when one country can offer something good to the world.
