The compiler of this book has collected from various English sources the teachings of twelve of Sri Ramakrishna's monastic disciples on important topics related to the development of spiritual life. This is a valuable compilation containing many gems of advice for spiritual seekers in general and followers of Sri Ramakrishna and Swami Vivekananda in particular.
I am the thread that runs through all these pearls, and each pearl is a religion or even a sect thereof. Such are the different pearls, and God is the thread that runs through all of them; most people, however, are entirely unconscious of it.
-Swami Vivekananda
