A superb translation from original Bengali by Swami Nikhilanandaji. Since I read regularly the Bengali original I found the translation very much conforming to the original which is very difficult in case of translating a "diary" type first hand depiction. The life sketch of Sri Ramakrishna is excellent too.

If you have only a little time left in your life and you intend to read one thing on Spirituality or you want to know the purpose of human life, live through this one book. No other book needed. This book is your Guru, unless you are ready you will not have the fortune to read it. If you are reading this you know what I am talking about. I met my Guru through Sri M and Akhilananad maharaj. Jai Guru Sri Ramakrishna!! Harekrishna Harekrishna Krishana Krishna Hare Hare Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare!!

A beautiful gilt-edged hardback volume of a thousand-plus pages whose quality befits the superlative content, the pure essence of Sri Ramakrishna's day-to-day discourses to his disciples during the 1880's, accounts replete with evocative, picturesque details of daily life in 19th century Bengal and Calcutta. The Paramahansa, this saintly Brahmin born in 1836 in the rustic village of Kamarpukur, had imbibed the nectar of Vedantic wisdom from his Saivite guru, had mastered all the sadhanas of the 64 Tantras under the tutelage of his female guru Bhairavi Brahmani and was a true master of the spiritual life, a great Shaktic devotee of Kali dwelling in the temple-complex of Dakshineshwar, a classic God-man and 'mad yogin' in the most ancient traditions of the Arya-Dharma - and yet the great gift of this hallowed Avatar, who was completely illiterate and had never learned to read or write, was his unparalleled ability to impart the most profound instruction and comprehensive ranges of esoteric insight with an exquisite simplicity, conveying the most brilliant expositions via simple, direct metaphors and charming rural teaching-tales. The spiritual 'perfume' of the Paramahansa's presence, his delicious humour and guileless child-like purity come across very clearly. The teachings of Sri Ramakrishna transmitted in the pages of these recorded conversations, providentially and accurately preserved by the faithful Mahendranath Gupta, a meritorious work for which he deserves the heart-felt gratitude of all serious seekers, open onto a veritable ocean of Divine Mercy. This magnificent work is a text which rewards one with the authentic taste of living holiness, transmits deep knowledge and precious instructions upon the Way of God-realisation - again and again Sri Ramakrishna gives us the immortality-bestowing Soma to quench our spiritual thirst, the Chintamani-jewel which fulfils and satisfies our innermost desire for the eternal Wisdom. The tone is one of a delectable simplicity and unrivalled clarity and yet the innermost secrets of the Dharmic teachings are transmitted in full measure, dry scholastic learning is eschewed to instead convey the methodic ways, paths and efficacious supports of initiatic realisation - expositions of unrivalled spiritual-metaphysical depth. 'The Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna' in fact constitutes an essential volume, one of the greatest classics and a repository of the esoteric wealth of this great Avataric Incarnation of God, unfolding and revealing for the men and women of this benighted Kali-Yug entangled in the deluding Avidya-Maya of 'woman and gold', the ever-living Light of Sanatan-Dharma - by absorbing oneself in these pages one is transported to the 19th century India of the Raj to experience the most holy privilege of sitting at the lotus-feet of the supreme Guru who is, as the Paramahansa tells us, is none other than Sat-Chit-Ananda. Thus this 'Gospel' is a living treasure to be read and meditated upon through one's whole life, an efficacious means via which the salvific Grace of the 'Supreme Swan', the eternal Guru, is imparted to the soul of the seeker: 'He is born in vain who, having attained the human birth, so difficult to get, does not attempt to realize God in this very life.'

This book will change your life! I'm a london city professional in his early 30's...I can honestly tell you that the words of the Great Mystic that is Sri Ramakrishna have changed my life! Enshrined in God-realisation, this personality is a genuine gem amongst the many charlatans. Please do yourselves a favour and read and then tell those who like you and those who do not!

This is one of those books everyone should own. It is full of inspiration and guidance from a great Avatar.

Good but too long winded ...a day by day account so much unnecessary detail

Hi one of the world's great books. A book to read for any spiritual minded person.Terrific read and good value.
