Guest guest Posted November 5, 2004 Report Share Posted November 5, 2004 Disciple: - Swamiji, what is the need of such an incarnation at this time? Swamiji: - It is said that the Lord of the universe will appear in this world of ours to adjust the spiritual laws according to the changed conditions of the world and the changed state of the mentality of people. This is certainly a time for such an adjustment due to the development of material sciences. Further there is a growth of disbelief in all that is religious and all that was believed by people of olden days. Not only that, there are many sects and religions existing with diverse views trying to establish supremacy, one over the others. At such a period of time, there was the need for having an adjustment or renaissance resulting in harmony between different faiths. That is the cause for the advent of a new divine personality like Sri Ramakrishna. Check out the new Front Page. www. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 6, 2004 Report Share Posted November 6, 2004 Sri Ramakrishnaya Namah Respected Swamiji, It is indeed heartening to see you sharing with us the works of Sri Swami Vishadandaji, a great realized soul. Bhagavan Sri Ramakrishna's advent brought such a blaze of light all over the world that even in distant lands, we find souls inspired by him. One such was Sri Swami Vishadanada. He stayed at my birthplace, at Sri Ramakrishna Ashram, Ottappalam, Kerala, where Sri Swami Nirmalanandaji(Tulsi maharaj) spent his final days. I did not have the fortune to see him and receive his blessings, as I was just 7 when he attained Samadhi, and was not aware of his presence in our sleepy little town. But my grandfather used to go to his ashram during his earlier days, it was then the Swamiji himself presented to him his works - Conversation on Spirit Divine and Evolution of Human Soul. Grandfather used to say how pleasing in behavior and radiant in being, the great Swamiji was. Once I became a little old, I discovered his works in my Grandfathers bookshelves and started reading the book with great interest. I greedily asked Grandfather to give the books to me, he was a little hesitant initially, may be because the books brought to him memories of the great Swamiji, but he had to agree to my importunes :-) Now the books are safe in my collection. Has this book been published by Ramakrishna Mission? It was not, when I had seen it. The book narrates the wonderful experiences the Swamiji had, when he experienced Swami Vivekananda himself talking to him, explaining the secret importance of Sri Ramakrishna and other spiritual truths !! Swami Tapasyanandaji, another great Swami from Ottappalam, had attested to the fact that Vishadanandaji had attained Nirvikalpa Samadhi, the highest realization. Sri Ramakrishna Mission has produced many great souls all over India and the world. It would be great if revered group members share their experiences with these great Children of Bhagavan Sri Ramakrishna !! Pranamam, Nikhil.

Guest guest Posted November 9, 2004 Report Share Posted November 9, 2004 Dear Joyoti, To the best of my knowledge, I am not aware of any Website hosting Swamiji's works. I also don't know whether these books have been published by Ramakrishna Mission. The copies I have were printed in a local press. In my previous mail, I had asked Sri Swami Kaivalyanandaji whether he has any info. Love and regards, Nikhil.
