God wants you to walk the way
Of self-mastery
And never the way
Of self-denial.

O sacred mother cow,
Our soulful hearts love you,
To you, we bow and bow.
Light divine, your inner name.
Sacrifice, your outer name.
You play a special role In the Cosmic Deities’ Game.

Notes:

  • Selection: Sri Chinmoy composed over 23,000 songs in his lifetime (1931-2007), this selection of 1,528 songs is specific to: (a) songs composed by Sri Chinmoy in English during the period of December 1999 to September 2007. And (b) which the Enthusiasm-Awakeners song group learned and performed during that same period.
  • Recording quality: these recordings are only for learning purposes. Many, especially the ones below the individual scores, were recorded on an old, portable cassette tape and have some distortion.
  • 90-day Challenge: The “90-days-for-90-Years” project was created in May 2021 to honour and commemorate 90 years since the birth of Sri Chinmoy. Each of the 90-days has an average of 17 songs per day, and culminated on August 27, 2021. See background story on the project.
  • “E.A.#s”: It is important to note that these numbers have no significance beyond the Enthusiasm-Awakeners (E.A,) song group and this project.  These numbers indicate the order that the Enthusiasm-Awakeners learned the songs. The numbers next to the song title is the related to the specific songbook they are published in (see the Songbook reference at the bottom of each score).
