Guest guest Posted February 17, 2003 Report Share Posted February 17, 2003 Namaste, I remember the explanation of mudras of Thakur has been dealt by Swami Chetananandaji in his book, 'Sri Ramakrishna As We Saw Him'. Regarding the smile of Thakur: There's an very old article, an editorial of Vedanta Kesari (unfortunately I forgot the issue number, etc.)titled, 'Sri Ramakrishna's Smile'. Swami Tyaganandaji has beautifully narrated the meaning & philosophy of Thakur's smile. This is for your information. Pranams & Regards, Uday.

Guest guest Posted February 19, 2003 Report Share Posted February 19, 2003 Namaste, The smile was a gift from Sita Herself! http://www.hinduism.fsnet.co.uk/namoma/kathamritam/introduction/kin_04 -Visions.htm Sri Sri Ramakrishna Kathamritam INTRODUCTION (continued) by Swami Nikhilananda Part 4 - Visions " ... The buildings with their different parts, the temple, and everything else vanished from my sight, leaving no trace whatsoever, and in their stead I saw a limitless, infinite, effulgent Ocean of Consciousness. " ... On his lips when he regained consciousness of the world was the word " Mother " . .... And after a short while he was blessed with a vision of Sita, the divine consort of Rama, who entered his body and disappeared there with the words, " I bequeath to you my smile. " .... In the midst of it there appeared a face with flowing beard, calm, highly expressive, and fair. Fixing its gaze steadily upon me, it said solemnly, 'Remain in bhavamukha, on the threshold of relative consciousness.' This it repeated three times and then it gently disappeared in the mist, which itself dissolved.
