How could he go shopping?³

I was in an Indian sweet shop in Bayside yesterday buying jalabee for prasad. A young man recognised me and was so surprised. He said, “Oh boy!”

Then he saw Databir and asked, “How could Sri Chinmoy come here and go shopping?”

He has come twice to our meditations at P.S. 86 and is used to seeing me in my high meditative consciousness. He couldn’t believe that I was standing in front of the counter buying jalabee.
