Each December*, the Enthusiasm-Awakeners singing group celebrate their anniversary by having a “sing-along”, giving others a chance to learn some of our favourite songs. (*Temporarily suspended in 2020 and 2021)
The Enthusiasm-Awakeners singing group was formed on 19 December 1999 and is dedicated to learning songs Sri Chinmoy composed in English (the majority of his songs are composed in Bengali).
Not how you sing
But for Whom you sing
Is of supreme importance.
The sing-alongs listings below include humble, low-quality recordings of the live events. These singalongs are casual gatherings in a sacred outdoor location. Ambient noise โsuch as rain, wind, people moving about, sirens, etcโ are very much evident in the recordings.
Kindly note: **Recordings are for purposes of learning songs only**
