The greatest adventure that you can embark on

Originally from India, Mahatapa now lives in New York City. She describes reading that the spiritual life is 'the greatest adventure that you can embark on' and how embarking on that adventure brough her to the Sri Chinmoy Centre. Mahatapa explains a few of the important lessons she has learned over the years - such as how everything in the universe is connected, and importance of feeling gratitude every day.
