Here in these pages is given a vivid and realistic pen-picture of a unique personality—unique because she was a nun, wife and mother at the same time. The Holy Mother Sri Sarada Devi, the divine yet human consort of Sri Ramakrishna, is here presented, as nowhere else, in all her rustic simplicity, which breaks the barriers of commonality by its artless naturalness inspired by a universal love which made no distinction between friend and foe, the small and the great, the ignorant and the wise, but enfolded every living being in the charming fragrance of motherliness that her personality exuded.Swami Saradeshananda, the recorder of these precious reminiscences, is a disciple-son of the Mother who had opportunities to serve her very intimately and thus hear all those conversations and witness all those small events that took place in the obscure village of Jayrambati. He has therefore drawn a pen-picture of the Mother with a wealth of details, thus giving a realistic presentation of the concept of Universal Motherhood in human terms.
This compact book by Swami Tapasyananda is all about Sri Sarada Devi, the consort and first disciple of Sri Ramakrishna. The first part covers an intimate account of her life with some of the author’s interpretations of the events; the second part is an analysis of her as the Motherhood of God; and the third and final part educate us about her teachings.Swami Tapasyananda was an erudite scholar and has many books to his credit, including translation of many scriptures. He was the vice-president of the Ramakrishna Math and Ramakrishna Mission from 1985 to 1991.
Authored by Swami Gambhirananda, who was a scholar-monk of great eminence and the eleventh president of the Ramakrishna Order, this book is one of the authentic biographies on Holy Mother Sri Sarada Devi. The book presents many interesting facts and incidents of her life gleaned from various authentic sources, both oral and written. Presented in a clear and vivid style, the main narrative is profusely interspersed with conversations of the Holy Mother. The book contains a chronology of the Holy Mother’s life and a genealogy of her family in the appendices. The book is a must-read for all devotees and admirers of the Ramakrishna movement to acquaint themselves with the extraordinary life of the Holy Mother.
An inspiring message for all humanity from one ofIndia’s most beloved spiritual teachersIf Sri Ramakrishna was a leaping flame of spiritual realization, Holy Mother was a steady glowing fire of God-consciousness. To the Master, Sri Ramakrishna, she was the goddess of wisdom in human form. To her disciples she was the Divine Mother herself. To her devotees she was a more real mother than their own earthly mother. To the seekers of truth she was the final word, and to sinners she was the last refuge.―from the IntroductionThe year 2003 marked the 150th anniversary of the birth of Sri Sarada Devi, the wife and spiritual companion of Sri Ramakrishna. Known affectionately in India and throughout the world as the Holy Mother, she was a rare combination of human and divine qualities, and is an inspiration today to millions who seek spiritual fulfillment.The first American edition of the conversations and teachings of the Holy Mother as recorded by her disciples, both lay and monastic, this fascinating collection brings to life the Holy Mother’s teachings on human affliction, self-control, and peace in ways both personal and profound. It illuminates her role as the power, scripture, joy, and guiding spirit of the Ramakrishna Order and clearly captures her unyielding devotion to God that earned her a reputation as a steady glowing fire of God-consciousness.Translated from the original Bengali by Swami Nikhilananda, a direct disciple of the Holy Mother, these inspiring and detailed conversations offer new insight into the daily life of this endearing and beloved spiritual personality and her message of compassion that continues to influence her devotees in India and throughout the world.
