‘Sri Sri Ramakrishna Leelaprasanga’, the most authentic biography of Sri Ramakrishna, written by his disciple Swami Saradananda. Translated to Gujarati
They alone live whose lives are in the whole universe, and the more we concentrate our lives on limited things, the faster we go towards death. Those moments alone we live when our lives are in the universe, in others; and living this little life is death, simply death, and that is why the fear of death comes.
-Swami Vivekananda
