IN SILENCE THEY ABIDE


IN SILENCE THEY ABIDE

Spirituality is not talking but living the life of realisation, unattached to aught of this earth, yet, profoundly moved by the sufferings of humanity ignorant of its spiritual moorings. And then flows spontaneous the grace of the great one --- who has become one with God --- for all of sentience, his every thought conducing to the good of all. Liberated he is of the shackles of Maya and he, out of boundless compassion for fallen humanity, now sets himself to liberating others who he sees as his own Self in a myriad Mayic guise.

Such a one of tranquil communication, whose very presence was uplifting, who transmitted spirituality with a gracious glance to the aspirant of divine longing, and who was the carrier of the spiritual legacy of the Holy Trinity of Thakur-Ma-Swamiji was Swami Virajananda, disciple of Holy Mother Sri Sarada Devi and the 6th President of the Ramakrishna Order. He was the spiritual preceptor of Swami Gahanananda, 14th President of the Ramakrishna Order. Our prostrations to both these illumined souls, the spiritual instruments of Sri Ramakrishna.
