Sri Chinmoy performs 10 crunch abdomen-ups pushing 367-lbs. in Jamaica, Queens, New York. Earlier that morning during training, he offers the following prayers:
1. At 5:15 a.m. before lifting 270 lbs with each arm four times.
|
My Supreme, my Supreme, my Supreme,
May this be my last prayerful promise:
I shall never, never, never
Lose faith in You.
My Supreme, my Supreme, my Supreme!
|
2. At 5:23 a.m. before lifting 130 lbs with each arm simultaneously.
|
My Supreme, my Supreme, my Supreme,
The world cannot see You,
But You can see the world.
May this Blessing
Be enough for the world.
My Supreme, my Supreme, my Supreme!
|
3. At 5:29 a.m. before lifting 145 lbs one hundred times (50 right, 50 left) for a new record of 2 mins 40 secs.
|
My Supreme, my Supreme, my Supreme!
We do not realise
That in order to be perfect
In our outer life,
We must be perfect
In our inner heart first.
My Supreme, my Supreme, my Supreme!
