This book published by Advaita Ashrama, Publication House of Ramakrishna Math, Belur Math, India, is an English translation by Swami Sunirmalananda of the original Bengali book Ek Natun Manush containing six essays on the great Master by Revered Swami Atmasthanandaji Maharaj, the 15th President of the Ramakrishna Math and Ramakrishna Mission. Swami Vivekananda once said: ‘Sri Ramakrishna is not exactly what the ordinary followers have comprehended him to be. He had infinite moods and phases.’ On another occasion he said, ‘Basketfuls of philosophical books can be written on each single sentence spoken by the Master!’ The thought-provoking essays of this book are the results of the revered author’s reverential reflection on that great life. It is hoped that a study of them will help the readers towards acquiring deeper reverence and comprehension of Sri Ramakrishna’s sublime life and profound teachings.
Of all the accounts of the life of Sri Ramakrishna, those written by his disciples who knew and lived with him are the most reliable. This book is an English translation of the Hindi book Paramahamsa Charit — a biography of the Master written by none other than Swami Vijnanananda. Paramahamsa Charit has the distinction of being the first Hindi biography of Sri Ramakrishna, as well as the only Hindi biography to be written by one of his disciples. It therefore has great historical significance. In addition to the life of Sri Ramakrishna and an early compilation of his teachings and parables, the book also contains a short biography of Swami Vijnanananda, his reminiscences of his Master, and a list of early writings on Sri Ramakrishna. Detailed notes and references further enhance the value of the book.
This is a compilation of 134 reminiscences of Swami Ranganathananda, presenting his multi-faceted personality in an inspiring as well as interesting manner. The Swami, in his long monastic career of about eight decades, had contributed in diverse fields, of which the most significant and notable one, for which he was reputed all over the world, was his contribution as the cultural and spiritual ambassador of India to the world. A very colourful picture of the Swami thus emerges out of the pages of this book. Published by Advaita Ashrama, a publication house of Ramakrishna Math, Belur Math, India.
For nearly a decade Swami Bhuteshananda, the 12th President of the Ramakrishna Order, devoted his weekly Bengali religious classes to discussions on Sri Ramakrishna and to the unique book, ‘The Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna’. His illuminating discussions brought out the thought-provoking deeper dimensions of the simple, homely utterances of the great prophet, and they helped the audience comprehend these simple sayings of the Great Master in the light of the ancient scriptures of India, specially the Vedanta, as well as modern thought. Not unoften, many abstruse concepts, many knotty philosophical questions and doubts of Vedanta metaphysics, were lucidly explained and resolved. These were later transcribed and eventually published in a seven-volume Bengali work, ‘Sri Sri Ramakrishna Kathamrita Prasanga’. The present work is an English translation of vols. four, five (minus the appendix), and seven of the original Bengali book.
