This book comprises four hymns in praise of, and supplication to, Sri Ramakrishna and Sri Sarada Devi. These hymns are sung in the ashramas of the Ramakrishna Order and also in thousands of homes of their devotees during vespers. Swami Harshananda's translation of these beautiful hymns and commentaries on them reveal their hidden meaning and help the readers comprehend their spiritual significance.
Why are people so afraid? The answer is that they have made themselves helpless and dependent on others. We are so lazy, we do not want to do anything ourselves. We want a Personal God, a Savior or a Prophet to do everything for us.
-Swami Vivekananda
