No prior experience needed
Samalya Schafer
Samalya explains how he was completely unfamiliar with spiritual concepts when he first took meditation classes, and how he feels that helped him because he had no preconceptions. He also talks about how the idea of having a spiritual Master slowly grew on him, and how he had a powerful experience that convinced him Sri Chinmoy was his Master.
