Question: Is art manifested in the inner world?

Sri Chinmoy: In the outer world we manifest, in the inner world we achieve. In the inner world we don't try to manifest anything. In the inner world, only we try to achieve. Only in the outer world do we try to manifest. Manifestation is on the outer plane, realisation is on the inner plane. We try to realise the ultimate Truth inside us and then we try to manifest that ultimate Truth here in the outer world.
