A prolific author, artist, poet, and musician, he also held public events such as concerts and meditations on the theme of inner peace.
Chinmoy also advocated athleticism to achieve spiritual enlightenment, including distance running, swimming, and weightlifting. He organized marathons and other races, and was an active runner and, following a knee injury, weightlifter.
