Sri Chinmoy Kumar Ghose (27 August 1931 - 11 October 2007) was an Indian philosopher and teacher (guru) who emigrated to the U.S. in 1964. A prolific author, composer, artist and athlete, he was perhaps best known for holding public events on the theme of inner peace and world harmony (such as concerts, meditations, and races). His teachings emphasize love for God, daily meditation on the heart, service to the world, and religious tolerance rooted in the syncretic modern Vedantic view that “all faiths” are essentially divine.
