To Manjushri about God as the Doer

[Guest guest]

Dear Manjushri ~ I love this prayer; thank you so much for posting it. In some ways it reminds of a prayer I have used, especially if I feel confused about what I'm doing or my direction in life, or sometimes just because. It is not modled off of Ramakrishna's because this is the first time I have ever seen hiw. It is very simple: Dear God, I don't know what to do or where to go. You please place the footprints, and I will follow.

Ramakrishn Ki Jai

Dear Linda,

Glad to see you back on the web! I was beginning to miss your posts.

Seems like you have settled in your new place.

I am so glad you liked the quote. Its amazing how all spiritual people

have held similar sentiments. I guess it's a measure of your own

spirituality that you share such sentiments.

The Gospel of Ramakrishna is a good book. Swamiji's abridged version

of the Gospel of Ramakrishna, The Nectar of Devotion(described by

Vish) is excellent because it selects the best.

Ramakrishna ki Jai, Maa ki Jai and Swamiji ki Jai

 

Love

Manjushri
