This book is a biography of Josephine Macleod, but interwoven with it is Vivekananda’s Vedantic mission. One will find in this book religion, philosophy, and mysticism; manners, customs, and cultures of the East and West. Linda Prugh, the author of this book, worked extremely hard to research and document in detail the early history of the Ramakrishna Movement in West as well as in the East.
This book is conceptualized both on Sri Ramakrishna’s statement to Narendra (Swami Vivekananda), “He who was Rama and Krishna is now, in this body, Ramakrishna but not in your Vedantic sense”, and the uniformity of divine qualities exhibited by these incarnations. It throws light on how Sri Ramakrishna exhibited the divine qualities that are similar to His earlier manifestations as Rama and Krishna. Arranged by subject, the divine qualities are described either through exposition or through story.Illustrated throughout, the book has the feel of a children’s book, but clearly it is for young adults and mature readers. While comparing the divine qualities of Ramakrishna with those of Rama and Krishna, Dr. Subrahmanyam also highlights challenges encountered by individuals and society at large in present life, and suggests solutions through apt examples from the lives of these god-men, Rama, Krishna and Ramakrishna.
Swami Apurvananda joined the Ramakrishna Order in 1918 and was initiated by Holy Mother. Written near the end of his life, and translated from the Bengali, In the Divine Realm is a fascinating account of Swami Apurvananda’s years at Belur Math. Culled from his accumulated memories of “the old times”, the book is replete with wonderful anecdotes, reflections and reminiscences of the many who peopled the Order many years ago, including many direct disciples of Sri Ramakrishna.The book is a very high quality Indian edition.
The hymns included in this book are all the inspired compositions of the direct disciples of Sri Ramakrishna and are sung during or immediately after the rites connected with the Aratrika in all the centres of the Ramakrishna Math and Mission. These are the fervent outpourings of the Apostles of the Great Master who in their own lives had experienced “the touch of the One in the play of the many.” Ramanam is a liturgical composition expounding the glory of Sri Rama through a series of names that suggestively highlight the main incidents in the life-story of this Divine Incarnation.This book contains a lucid and faithful English translation of the texts to enable the reader to absorb better the spirit of these hymns. A transliteration of the texts in Roman script is also included to help those who are not very familiar with the Devanagari script.
