Sri Ramakrishna

by Gayatri Madan Dutt

To his admirers, he is a great teacher and a saint. To his devotees, he is a divine incarnation. Summing up the life of Sri Ramakrishna, Will Durant, in his The Story of Civilization, writes: "All religions are good, he taught his followers; 'All rivers flow to the ocean. Flow and let others flow too!' He tolerated sympathetically the polytheism of the people and accepted humbly the monism of the philosophers; but in his own living faith God was a spirit incarnated in all men and the only true worship of God was the loving service of mankind."

A simple yet well-researched and impactful narration of some of the significant aspects of Sri Ramakrishna's life and teachings. I expected it to be very cursory but was surprised at some of the facts included.

A good start for anyone curious to know more about one of the least talked about philosophical personality of recent times.

অলৌকিকতা খুব একটা বশীভূত করার মতন উপস্থাপন করা হয় নাই। পাঁচ বছরের শিশুকে বিয়ে করার মতন ঘটনা, যা আজকের যুগে অপরাধ, তা লিখতে গিয়ে বলা হয় নি–আজকের যুগে তা করা উচিত নয়, অথচ বইটা শিশুদের উদ্দেশেই নিবেদিত।
তবে শ্রীরামকৃষ্ণের 'সব ধর্মই একই পথ দেখায়' বা 'অতি প্রতিক্রিয়া আর অতি উদাসীনতা–দুইয়ের মাঝে ভারসাম্য রক্ষা' বেশ ভালো করে বিচিত্রিত হয়েছে। এটাই নেবার।

"A tank has many ghats.. At one, Hindus draw water in a pitcher and call it "jal". At another, Mussalmans draw water in leather bottles and call it "pani". At a third are Christians and they call it water. Can we say that the ,thing drawn is not jal but only water or Pani?
The substance is one, only the names vary"

Good!!

Although this book did not go deep into the more mystic aspects of ramakrishna's life, as osho did, it is a good book. The beautiful drawings contributed to the mysticism of this book. I would not say that the book could have been better, for I was in a meditative mood while reading this, and meditation does not know betterment, the book flowed well with my heart...
