Donna Halper: So meditation is kind of like an addition to the religious belief that you already have.

Sri Chinmoy: It is an addition. It is the inner essence of all religions.

Donna Halper: Now that you mention it, isn't there some form of meditation in every religion? They may not call it meditation, but don't all religions have some sort of meditation?

Sri Chinmoy: Every religion encourages some kind of inner communion with the Highest.
