The Condensed Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna
Author: Mahendranath Gupta
Publisher: Sri Ramakrishna Math
ISBN:
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 392
Book Description
Mahendranath Gupta, a householder disciple of Sri Ramakrishna, is familiarly known by his pen name ‘M’ and popularly as ‘Master Mahashay’. He was the recorder of the great teachings and revelations that came to humanity through Sri Ramakrishna, which he eventually published in Bengali as Sri Sri Ramakrishna Kathamrita, a unique classic in the religious literature of the world. This Bengali work was translated into English by Swami Nikhilananda as The Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna. The present work, The Condensed Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna, is M’s own English version of some of the most important and representative chapters of his voluminous work in Bengali. It is more a translation of thoughts contained in his diary than of its language. He has also included in this work several new elaborations and doctrinal discussions. In this sense, this book by nature is more of an original work by M in English rather than a mere translation.

Ramakrishna and His Gospel (Volume 3)
Author: Swami Bhuteshananda
Publisher: Advaita Ashrama (A Publication House of Ramakrishna Math, Belur Math)
ISBN:
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 471
Book Description
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 volume six and the appendix to volume five of the original Bengali work. Published by Advaita Ashrama, a publication house of Ramakrishna Math, Belur Math, India.

Infinite Paths to Infinite Reality
Author: Ayon Maharaj
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0190868244
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 369
Book Description
Sri Ramakrishna is widely known as a nineteenth-century Indian mystic who affirmed the harmony of all religions on the basis of his richly varied spiritual experiences and eclectic religious practices, both Hindu and non-Hindu. In Infinite Paths to Infinite Reality, Ayon Maharaj argues that Sri Ramakrishna was also a sophisticated philosopher of great contemporary relevance. Through a careful study of Sri Ramakrishna's recorded oral teachings in the original Bengali, Maharaj reconstructs his philosophical positions and analyzes them from a cross-cultural perspective. Sri Ramakrishna's spiritual journey culminated in the exalted state of "vijñana," his term for the "intimate knowledge" of God as the Infinite Reality that is both personal and impersonal, with and without form, immanent in the universe and beyond it. This expansive spiritual standpoint of vijñana, Maharaj contends, opens up a new paradigm for addressing central issues in cross-cultural philosophy of religion, including divine infinitude, religious pluralism, mystical experience, and the problem of evil. Sri Ramakrishna's vijñana-based religious pluralism--when grasped in all its subtlety--proves to have major philosophical advantages over dominant Western models. Moreover, his mystical testimony and teachings not only cut across long-standing debates about the nature of mystical experience but also bolster recent defenses of its epistemic value. Maharaj further demonstrates that Sri Ramakrishna's unique response to the problem of evil resonates strongly with Western "soul-making" theodicies and contemporary theories of skeptical theism. A pioneering interdisciplinary study of one of India's most important philosopher-mystics, Maharaj's book is essential reading for scholars and students in philosophy of religion, theology, religious studies, and Hindu studies.
