Question: As a Centre leader, if I see that boy and girl disciples are talking too much, should I say something to them? Some are old disciples, and they should know to be more careful.

Sri Chinmoy: If they are new disciples, you have to inform them. Perhaps they do not know our strictness. If they do not listen to you, then kindly inform me. But if they have been on the path for a long time and they are spending time talking and talking, boys and girls together, then I have to be informed immediately.

Again, girls can talk with girls and boys can also talk with boys all night, until the sun rises!
