#229. Jharna Kala Exhibition Shines in Kalocsa

From mid-May, the small town of Kalocsa, Hungary, hosted a remarkable Jharna Kala exhibition at the Nicolas Schöffer Collection. Over the span of a month, visitors enjoyed 60 stunning art pieces, each capturing the essence of Sri Chinmoy’s vision. The opening ceremony was a highlight, featuring performances of Sri Chinmoy’s music by dedicated disciple groups. Adding to the cultural tapestry, the exhibition was part of the city’s annual Blue Bird Festival. Throughout the exhibition, attendees could watch continuous video footage of Sri Chinmoy in the creative process. A statue of Sri Chinmoy added a personal touch, and one lucky visitor won a Jharna Kala artwork in a raffle. The event was a beautiful blend of Sri Chinmoy’s art, music, and community spirit.

#181. 827 children sing peace songs by Sri Chinmoy (Pécs, Hungary – October 21, 2019)

On October 21, 2019, 827 children (between 7-19 years old) from 23 schools in Pécs and the surrounding area sang at the famous Kodály Center – one of the best music halls in Hungary – 15 peace songs in Bengali and English by Sri Chinmoy, accompanied by the ensemble “Mountain-Silence” in honor of the United Nations International Day of Peace. At the end all the children – the whole audience – gave a standing ovation, clapping and thrumming enthusiastically. As an “encore” the children sang two songs once more with great joy and enthusiasm.

The next big project will be a similar group of children but coming from many places around the world. The event is planned for the 30th of October 2020 in Győr. If you have ideas to realize this event or want to participate please contact: [email protected].
