The attached PDF presents a history of the Sri Chinmoy Marathon Team’s connection to Goose Pond Park (Captain Tilly Park) in Jamaica, NY. With its proximity to Aspiration-Ground, the meditation garden where Sri Chinmoy spent countless hours playing tennis, composing songs and offering prayers and meditations, the Park became a focal point for many inspiring activities.
