Guest guest Posted May 2, 2007 Report Share Posted May 2, 2007 Greetings: I don't believe it's correct or appropriate to describe Ramakrishna as a " householder. " He was a renunciant from the day of his first breath! Yes, he was married and shared a bed for 11 months with his wife -- but they never consumated that relationship. Instead, their relationship was one of Guru and disciple. As mentioned by others, Nag Mahashay was one example of an " ideal householder " who achieved Moksha. I would certainly add " M, " Balaram Basu and other devotees to that sacred list. Jai Ramakrishna, Brad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
