Question: When will you go to Russia?
Sri Chinmoy: I am dying to go to Russia, but because of political reasons it is not possible right now. You can come and see me here, but if I go to Russia, then afterwards I will be homeless. Of course, I could return to India; but I wouldn’t be allowed to come back and stay in America or Germany or France or England or anywhere. I would be totally lost.Right now the political firmament is covered with teeming clouds. When the political firmament is clear, I will be able to come. I do not know when the physical in me will be able to go to Russia, but I have already sent my heart, my inner realisation and my Eternity’s oneness to the inner existence and the outer existence of Russia. It is not a financial problem but a political problem that prevents me from coming.
