Sri Ramakrishna Daily Sutras

[Guest guest]

Hello folks

 

Does anybody know where I can get the collected works of Swamiji here in London (in and around)?

 

Or,

 

can somebody tell me the difference between these two sets?

" There are two types of paramahamsas: the jnani and the premi. (Lover

of God.) The jnani is self-centred; he feels that it is enough to have

Knowledge for his own self. The premi, like Sukadeva, after attaining

his own realization, teaches men. Some eat mangoes and wipe off the

traces from their mouths; but some share their mangoes with others.

Spades and baskets are needed to dig a well. After the digging is

over, some throw the spades and baskets into the well. But others put

them away; for a neighbour may use them. Sukadeva and a few others

kept the spades and baskets for the benefit of others. (To Girish) You

should do the same. "
