The more 'The Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna' spreads in the world, the greater number of people ask: Who is this Ramprasad, whose songs Sri Ramakrishna so often sang? This small book is designed to be a modest answer to the above question.Sri Ramprasad (1723-1803), the melodious mystic of Bengal, belongs to that wonderful galaxy of Indian mystics whose approach to the Divine found expression and consummation in songs and melodies which form a part of the spiritual heritage of India. In this book an attempt has been made to portray the inner moods, the beauty and grandeur of the spiritual emotions of this great saint.
There is only one sin -- and that sin is weakness. When I was a boy, I read Milton's Paradise Lost. The only good man I had any respect for was Satan. The only saint is the soul who never weakens, faces everything, and determines to die game.
