Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna
If anyone wants to read Chaitanya's life they can do it plenty of other places. The book is unwieldy ; unlike any other book format. I cut mine down to Only the ' conversations , and kept the laminated cover ( which is a big improvement ) . I now have a soft - cover book that is very comfortable to hold and read , with the ' head and tail ' cut away , to speak in Gospel - ese.
It's hard to believe that a person like Ramakrishna existed. Fortunately, we have a diary-like description by Mahendranath Gupta who described the visits in his diary each visit to Ramakrishna.
You will have to revise what you think of a holy man and stretch your imagination to think about this simple and genuine soul who we learn is the personification of God on earth. It may be hard to believe, but is well worth the look.
This book should be in every library of those that practice Sanatana Dharma.
Happy with the purchase.
Many insights and guidance offered through the teachings and wisdom of Sri Ramakrishna.
The blessings of this child of God are upon my life since reading the gospel. Learning of him is beautiful but tuning into his eternal nature through reading his life is bliss. The incense is the sweetest fragrance. When I read I burn the insence and later when I smell the insence I remember his presence. I am a diciple of Paramahansa Yogananda and he recommended this gospel to his devotees. I love Vendanta society and cannot wait untill the bookroom is open again.
hot diggity God! we can access the depth of Master M's magnum opus without the weight! we still pay homage to the 'big book', & are happy to have this one for those early morning study hours when you need things to be a bit more easy to hold! beautiful to hold; the actual size of the book brings the words more to heart & a literal intimacy to be had with Sri RK etal!--Revzo
it is a must read if you have interest in Ramakrishna or spiritual life one of the best books and easy to read kausika
