Guest guest Posted November 27, 2000 Report Share Posted November 27, 2000 http://www.geocities.com/namoma The original six chapters are now complete, and six new chapters have been added for Divine Companionship with Sri Ramakrishna. You can go there by clicking on Kathamritam from the main page. Hopefully, by the time it is completed, we will have a day's worth of reading from M.'s diary - well, for most days atleast By the way, in case you see any errors or problems, I would sincerely appreciate your response back. Thanks much and enjoy ! ------------------------------ Sri Ramakrishna had asked M. to work for the Divine Mother, and he did so for fifty years. Even though his health was delicate, he never gave up working. Swami Nityatmananda wrote of a touching incident in his memoirs: 'I was responsible for the printing of the Kathamrita [the Bengali Gospel] while it was at the printer's, but I had many things to do and was unable to finish the proofreading in time. At one o'clock at night I saw a light in M.'s room. I entered and found he was reading the proofs of the Gospel by a kerosene lantern. He was not well at all, and moreover, as he was working at an odd hour, his eyes were watering. I was pained at this. I lovingly chastised him and he replied with affection: " People are finding peace by reading this book, the Master's immortal message. It is inevitable that the body will meet its end, so it is better that it is used for spreading peace to others. We are in the world and have utterly experienced how much pain is there, yet I have forgotten that pain through The Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna. I am hurrying so that the book may come out soon " . Indeed, M. died while the last portion of the last volume was at the press. He was born to write and teach The Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna'. Read on, about the account of Sri Sri Ramakrishna Kathamrita, known to the English readers as The Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna.
