Part III: Questions at a press conference

//The following questions were asked at a press conference held in Queens, New York, on 12 August 1986.//

Question: Why, at this point, are you having this press conference?

Sri Chinmoy: My students wanted me to have this conference so that we can serve more people with our inspiration and our dedication. Our philosophy is to aspire and inspire. A few reporters are here; they too can be of great service to humanity. We are all trying to do the same thing in our own way. I am lifting weights and you are writing articles, but all of us are trying to serve and inspire humanity according to our capacity and in our own career.
