🕉 IN 'CONVERSATION' WITH SWAMIJI ... 1

Ramakrishna Mission should  largely publish books of the photographs of Thakur-Ma Swamiji. That is what people want. It is futile to furnish them fine literature. It will be neglected en masse. 

However, the support base is large. So, a minute percentage will still read. Perhaps, it is for them that spiritual literature is still being published. Otherwise, 'Jai Thakur-Jai Ma-Jayatu Swamiji'-evoking fine photographs should suffice.

The indolent cannot be trusted to read or reflect, much less realise the implication of ideas. Realisation of spiritual truths thereof is a far cry. It is the popular dance of the divine now when civilisation has reached its nadir. 

Poor Swamiji! In vain did you lecture and write. So few are the takers for it today. It is the Age of Foolishness. Come better prepared to tackle fools next time. They have perfected the art of being superficial. They are strong enough to defeat your wisdom. So, remain forewarned. You will have to save a perverse people bearing the name 'bhakt/devotee'. They will frustrate your Upanishads and prove to you how little your brains count and how much more your looks. This is the Yugadharmasankat, plight of this perverse Age. Bring with you rocketloads of Saptaparshi Mandal pictures. They will gain fine currency. Sorry to frighten you so, Swamiji, but just in case. 🕉
