Sri Ramakrishna's message was fundamentally a spiritual message to a world steeped in materialism. And who could be better equipped to interpret that message than his direct disciples who had been moulded by that Great Master into his own mould. This book comprises of articles by these great disciples of Sri Ramakrishna bringing out the true significance of religion and its practice. All those who truly thirst after religion and God will find in this book clear insights into spiritual life and practices.
Renounce and give up. What did Christ say? He that loseth his life for my sake shall find it. Again and again did he preach renunciation as the only way to perfection. There comes a time when the mind awakes from this long and dreary dream -- the child gives up its play and wants to go back to its mother.
-Swami Vivekananda
