Guest guest Posted April 21, 2006 Report Share Posted April 21, 2006 The above title is a translation (by Shree Maa and Swami Satyananda) of a portion of M's original notes he wrote down, through recollection of the many satsangs with Ramakrishna: Ramakrishna: "The highest ideal of perfection in this age is union with God through devotion. Union through the path of knowledge is extremely difficult. It is best to keep the "I" of a servant, a devotee, or of a child of God. Vijay: "Oh, Great Sir (Mahashay), you are instructing me to leave and renounce all inferior works, all evil karma. Is there no fault in retaining the "I" who is a servant?" Ramakrishna: "No, the servant "I" means "I am a servant of God, I am a devotee of God." There is no fault in having such an ego. Through that, ultimately, one will attain God" Jai Maa!
