Sri Ramakrishna and Dr. Mahendra Lal Sarkar

Part 4

 

Mention must be made about two other doctors who treated Sri

Ramakrishna, namely Dr. Rakhal and Dr. Bhagavan Rudra. In their brief

encounter with Sri Ramakrishna many things of spiritual significance

were talked about. Sri Ramakrishna advised them on matters of realizing

God while still engaged in their profession.

 

To Dr. Rakhal, Sri Ramakrishna spoke of the need of leading the life

with dignity and alertness; but held that this is possible only through

the awakening of spiritual consciousness. He also advised that

'Truthfulness is the Tapasya of the Kaliyuga', and, 'Truthfulness,

submission to God, and looking at other women as one's own mother are

the means to realize God.' For Sri Ramakrishna physician was Narayana

Himself; and he indirectly advised Dr. Rakhal to honour everybody as

such.

 

To Dr. Rudra, Sri Ramakrishna narrated the incidence in his life where

it was impossible for him to store anything or tell a lie. He also told

the doctor the importance of intense yearning to realize God, like

'child's attraction for his mother, husband's attraction for the chaste

wife, and the miser's attraction for the material wealth.'
