The spiritual state of Sri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa


While talking about his spiritual state, Sri Ramakrishna Paramahansa said, "The Divine Mother has put me in a state of a devotee. She has also put me in a state of a 'vijnani'. That's why I indulge in light-hearted fun with youngsters like Rakhal (Swami Brahmananda). Had She placed in the state of a 'Jnani' it would not be possible."

-Extract from Page 184-185 of Reminiscences of Swami Brahmananda - The Mind-Born son of Sri Ramakrishna.

Sri Ramakrishna is one of the greatest master of 19th century and his teachings are very simple and easy to understand.

Thakur parables are fingers pointing to the moon.
