19. Anomaly

Madal:

Chinmoy, you often move around with your Indian shorts and Indian robes. What do your disciples think of you? Are you not an anomaly in New York city?

Chinmoy:

Madal, strangely enough I myself have asked them the same question. They have said to me that, although I deviate from the usual and I am not like them in my outer way of life, they like my cute Indianism, for they love my Indian heart.
