_Question:_ Has the soul of America taken human incarnation?

Sri Chinmoy: No, good boy, the soul of America is still lingering. The soul of America is still in its original form. It has not yet taken human incarnation. God alone knows when it will. It will not be in the near future. The soul of America is quite satisfied with its role. Sometimes souls become disgusted, as sometimes human beings are fed up. But the soul of America is quite satisfied. Right now taking human incarnation is out of the question for the soul of America. The soul of America is very strong, very powerful, very beautiful, but something is missing, and that something is called maturity. I am not criticising your country’s soul, but the souls of some countries are more mature in the inner world than the American soul. The American soul has tremendous power and many other qualities in boundless measure. But when it is a matter of maturity, there are some souls which are much more mature than the American soul. Maturity in the soul’s world means experience, experiences of different types. Millions of experiences America still needs. Then the soul of America will become much more mature and, at the same time, maintain these most powerful and beautiful qualities that it has. Then will come the time for the soul of America to enter into a human incarnation and embody these qualities. But it will take time.
