Japan-Korea Joy Day
Sri Chinmoy encouraged students from different countries to meet together for Joy Days - gatherings of meditation and spiritual practice, but also games and (as the name suggests) joy!
Recently, Japanese and Korean students met together in Japan for the first such Joy Day.

There are now plans for the first Asian Joy Day later on this year.
