Synthesizer-Joy
by Sri Chinmoy
after a performance at Public School 86 in Jamaica, New York
Tonight I have really, really enjoyed my performance on the synthesizer! [The audience offers a standing ovation.] Tonight I played to my greatest satisfaction. What more can I say?
Usually people speak about freedom of speech. Now I wish to speak about freedom of performance. I have enjoyed this performance far beyond my own imagination. I happen to be a poet, and poets have a free access to the imagination-world. But today my performance has far surpassed my imagination. I enjoyed it very, very much, very much!
I count this performance as my masterpiece. The joy that I felt while playing was unparalleled. Immensity’s joy I felt while playing, and now also, while I am listening.
I shall inform our Centres that whenever they have Joy Days, they should play this synthesizer performance of mine. They will have real joy! I will be happy if all the Centres can have a copy. Then they can play it once a month.
Joy, joy!
