Mother, I Bow to Thee is one of Sri Chinmoy’s earliest audio recordings. It was recorded in 1972 at the Sri Chinmoy Centre, Kingston, in Jamaica, West Indies. The recording was in response to his disciples requesting that his singing be recorded for listening at home, when they could not be with the Master.
