My Aspiration-Heart Cycles, part 1
Preface
For the past twelve months, I have been offering prayers in the morning, before I do my weightlifting. Now I have embarked on a new journey. Each time before I do ten minutes cycling, I will offer a prayer. By living here in the West, I have become a man of prayers.— Sri Chinmoy
