Swami Brahmananda was Sri Ramakrishna`s spiritual son and the first President of the Ramakrishna Order. This is a compilation of the personal accounts of numerous people who intimately knew Maharaj (as the Swami was reverentially called), and had many occasions to closely observe his daily life and day-to-day dealings. The charm of his unassuming personality and the silent influence of his deep spirituality left a lasting influence on all those who came in touch with him.
I do not want to get material life, do not want the sense-life, but something higher. That is renunciation. Then, by the power of meditation, undo the mischief that has been done.
-Swami Vivekananda
