See www.skylightpaths.com/books/462.htm Publisher's description: Introducing the teachings of the great Indian mystic with facing-page commentary that brings the text to life for you Annotation by Kendra Crossen Burroughs Originally recorded in Bengali by M, a disciple of the Master Translation by Swami Nikhilananda Series Editor Andrew Harvey The Profound Teachings of a Great Mystic Come to Life More than a century after the passing of Ramakrishna, one of India's greatest exemplars of God-consciousness and mystical union, his message of harmony and tolerance still inspires millions of people, both in the East and around the world. Through this " Gospel, " or spiritual life and teachings, Ramakrishna became known to the world as a saint, as a divine incarnation, and a " supremely realized self. " The Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna faithfully records a series of conversations with this extraordinary mystical personality who left no written works of his own. This eyewitness account--first recorded in Ramakrishna's native language, Bengali, near the turn of the twentieth century--shares his enlightening parables, profound spiritual knowledge, and fascinating accounts of his visions and realizations of the truth of all religions.
