jai maa.... jai jai ramakrishna

[Guest guest]

It is so cool to have this new book translated by Swamiji and Maa

from the RamaKrishna Kathamrita..... thank you Maa and Swamiji and

everyone involved.... Only if I was present when they translated in

front of the devotees and sang just as in the times of Thakur... as

described by nanda....

 

"This book was compiled over two years . It started out on Saturday

evenings when Maa used to read a few paragraphs from the original

Bengali and Swamiji translated as She went along. Soon these

Saturdays became special for all, gathering around these two great

souls , to hear them talk about another great soul. The evenings

flew by, filled with wisdom and liberally peppered with Swamiji's

humor and Maa's insight. Of course there was singing - Maa sang the

songs from the book and would have us all in a wonderful bhava .

 

 

There were two parallel satsangs that merged into one. One Satsang

was happening in the book and the other was happening real time.

With Maa and Swamiji bringing vividly to life , the satsangs around

Ramakrishna and his devotees, the questions asked by the devotees,

his wisdom and stories ... intimately intertwining with that day's

satsang with Maa and Swamiji, the questions asked of them about

Ramakrishna and their wisdom ... It was becoming more obvious that

Maa and Swamiji were one with Ramakrishna . IT WAS HARD TO SAY

WHERE RAMAKRISHNA LEFT OFF AND MAA AND SWAMIJI BEGAN ! "

All of you who witnessed this must be so blessed to witness it.... my

pranaams to all... if only the rest of us could enjoy that kirtan

rasamrta (nectar)... this new book shall provide for those who missed

out on such a beautiful event...

 

Jai Maa... Jai Jai RamaKrishna... Thaakur...
