Whoever Thought?

First there was the League of Nations. Sri Aurobindo had a very high opinion of the League of Nations. Then starting in 1945 there was the United Nations. When Sri Aurobindo heard about the United Nations, he felt it would be the answer to world peace, world union. Whoever at that time thought that I would come to the UN to lead peace meditations?

Whoever thought I would become so close to Ravi Shankar? He was playing his sitar at the Ashram, and I was a young boy, not even two metres away from him, face to face. I admired him so much. I was right in front of him, facing him. Whoever thought?
