This book draws parallels between Sri Ramakrishna's teachings and the words of the scriptures. It thus serves as a commentary on the Master's teachings and helps us to understand them better.
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
