Devotees on a pilgrimage to Belur Math and other places associated with Sri Ramakrishna, Sarada Devi, and Swami Vivekananda often look for a reliable guidebook to make their pilgrimage fruitful. This book attempts to fulfill this need.Appendices at the end of the book provide additional information like distances between various places, list of books to be read before undertaking the pilgrimage, and contact addresses of various pilgrim centres.
Avoid excessive merriment. A mind in that state never becomes calm; it becomes fickle. Excessive merriment will always be followed by sorrow. Tears and laughter are near kin. People so often run from one extreme to the other.
-Swami Vivekananda
