Review: Ramakrishna - Spiritual Superman - Ramakrishna is / was a spiritual superman, as the book clearly illustrates, through this biographical account by one of his disciples who knew him personally. Anyone interested in spirituality, in deepening their own direct experience of God, unbelievers, skeptics and scientists, should all read this book, because it proves that the limit of any one person's experience is not the limit of the Universe. Every person is capable of such unique and different experiences and perspectives that it defies belief. The most important message which I take from this biography of a spiritual superhero, is that every one of us experience exactly according to our convictions. If you are a scientific materialist, that is all you will ever experience, unless and until you change your convictions, of course. If you are an atheist, you cannot know God. You will only experience the dry, barren grounds of your atheism. If you believe in good and evil, you will personally encounter both. If you have a personal conviction in the existence of God, then you cannot fail to encounter Him in all things. So, if all of us are capable of such divine, ecstatic experiences and incomparable happiness, why would we confine ourselves only to dry scientific "facts"? Or to materialism? Doing so is like living the life of a maggot. Each of us is capable of so much more: each of us can soar like an eagle. If you don't want to experience the life of a maggot, all you need to do is to change your convictions: your belief system. And all of this comes from a documentary video known as "The Secret", which illustrates very clearly that each person can only know according to his or her personal convictions. I encourage you to find and watch that video. Then read Ramakrishna's biography, showing you what is possible for you too. God is to be regarded as nearer and dearer to you than your own self: that, combined with your own conviction that He really exists, will lead you to experience Him directly. This is Ramakrishna's message. Why would you want to do that? Because of the incomparable, indescribably meaningful life that this will bestow on you. Be an eagle, not a scientific maggot. Why would any sane person confine himself to the latter? There are at least two biographies of Ramakrishna available from the desertcart Kindle Store. The other one is the Western perspective created by Christopher Isherwood, in "Ramakrishna and his disciples". For the absolute newbie to Eastern mysticism, this may be a better book to start off with, than the current account which assumes a lot of background understanding from the reader, as if though you are a Hindu. After all, the current account was written by an Indian, steeped from birth in the Hindu scriptures. Isherwood, a westerner who lived for many years in California, on the other hand, provides a sufficiently detailed background to make perfect sense of it all. The result is not at all boring, but actually totally absorbing. The other very important message of the Ramakrishna books, including the one under review, is that all religious approaches are equally valid. God can be experienced in the form of Father, Mother, friend, child, animal, a seemingly inanimate stone object (which can bring forth the living Form residing in it), or as the formless Source of the Universe. All these different experiences are equally valid. Christianity is not more, or less valid, than Hinduism, and ditto for Buddhism, Islam, and any other religious path the human mind is capable of encountering. It is a question of personal temperament, where you are in your own life's path right now, preference and personal capacity. In God's world there is a place for every sentient being, and His name is not only Jesus. How does Ramakrishna illustrate that all religious approaches are equally valid? Through his own direct experiences, which defy belief, logic, science and head knowledge of all kinds. That is what makes the current book so incredible, and Isherwood's account too: The pages burn with direct supernormal spiritual experiences and deep conviction, which cannot easily be found in most other books on the subject.
Review: One of the best books I have ever read in my life - What can be said about the life of Sri Ramakrishna? The Absolute itself incarnated in a humble abode and taught in such a heart-melting and mind-blowing way that makes you feel that Love and Truth itself is speaking to you in every word that comes out of his mouth. His absolute simplicity, child-like nature, humility, care for others, exemplary life, discipline is so awe inspiring! He IS the Universal Teacher that knows the disposition of every person and the right approach for each one. Together with the Autobiography of a Yogi, this is one of the best books I have ever read in my life. Do not hesitate to buy.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Hardcover book is beautifully bound in a quality manner
*by S***L on February 17, 2015*

A most stunning book. Hardcover book is beautifully bound in a quality manner. Sri Ramakrishna was a simple and humble saint who spoke in a simple and straightforward manner about complex spiritual issues. The translator did a most excellent job in putting the teachings of Sri Ramakrishna in a very readable and easily understood manner that can melt your heart. Reading this book is like sipping soma nectar. A book worth reading slowly at a quiet time. If I could I would rate I this book a hundred stars.
