Dr. Mahendralal Sarkar was a leading Homoeopath of Kolkata during the second half of the nineteenth century. He was also blessed by providence to be Sri Ramakrishna's doctor after Sri Ramakrishna developed cancer of the throat. In this book, readers will get a glimpse into Dr. Sarkar's multifaceted personality and also into the intimate relationship he enjoyed with Sri Ramakrishna.
Discriminate within yourself between the real and the unreal. Have you not read the Vedanta? Even when you sleep, keep the sword of discrimination at the head of your bed, so that covetousness cannot approach you even in dream. Practicing such strength, renunciation will gradually come, and then you will see the portals of heaven are wide open to you.
-Swami Vivekananda
