In The Divine Realm
It was in 1918 that Swami Apurvananda, the author of this title, first came to Belur Math. Shortly thereafter, he received initiation from Holy Mother Sri Sarada Devi. As a member of Ramakrishna Order, he came in contact with many direct disciples of Sri Ramakrishna and other participants in Sri Ramakrishna’s divine play.

The Laughing Swamis
In 1895 Swami Vivekananda of the Ramakrishna Mission initiated two Europeans one a womean into the ancient tradition of sannyasa or world-renuciation. This practice was continued in the first part of the twentieth century by Swami Shivananda of Rishikesh. From the late sixties onwards with the sudden expansion of European awareness of Indian Spirituality, a vast hord of foreign religious heads have spread through India in incomprehensibly large numbers.
