The amount of labour, both intellectual as well as physical, that has

gone behind restoring the ancestral home of Swamiji cannot be

expressed in words. One has to see the special video on the

restoration shown at the renovated site to become aware of it all.

 

The renovated home has been reconstructed as if it is still being

lived in. The effect is marvellous and you almost expect a historical

character to walk out of one of the rooms. The effect would have been

more concerted had the furniture been covered with contemporary sheets

and the walls decorated with calendars and photos of the age. Perhaps

this will be done over time.

 

There are two things one should never miss during a trip to Kolkata,

the museum at Belur Math and Swamiji's ancestral home. The Baranagore

Math is also being restored. I am sure it will be another masterpiece.

And yes, Kashipore too is fabulous as well as Nilambar Mukherjee's

garden house just adjacent to Belur Math which served as the Math at

one time and where the Holy Mother performed the panchatapa.

 

How we wish the Dakshineswar Temple would have been under the care of

the Monks of the Ramakrishna Order. It is a world heritage site now

and is being renovated but I doubt if the spiritual ambience at the

time of Sri Ramakrishna will be properly reflected. Already the room

of Sri Ramakrishna is changing rapidly without rhyme or reason. And

the less said about the Panchavati the better.

 

We all remain ever indebted to the revered monks who have

painstakingly acquired all the sites and renovated them. I know a

little about Swami Prabhanandaji's all India tour to collect the items

for the museum. These are works of intense devotion and love and

cannot be compared to anything else. The Ramakrishna Math & Mission

has shown us the way to combine secular work with worship but yet we

laggards refuse to learn. That is the tragedy.

 

Love & Regards,

Jagannath.
