This book contains conversations of Holy Mother Sri Sarada Devi, originally in Bengali, and recorded by her disciples. The English translation is simple and attractive and has a close affinity to the original. It also contains a biographical introduction by Swami Nikhilananda.
Jnana teaches that the world should be given up, but not on that account to be abandoned. To be in the world but not of it -- is the true test of the sannyasin.
-Swami Vivekananda
