READ THE GANGA IN THE GOMUKH

READ THE GANGA IN THE GOMUKH

We need to read Sri Ramakrishna's and Swami Vivekananda's message direct and not through the lens of feeble preachers coming after them and interpreting them. The Master and his Apostle are direct enough, simple enough for easy understanding and need no intermediaries to interpret their message in the light of their fractional understanding for us to swallow and digest with altered understanding. This is how the messages of great spiritual teachers are lost to humanity as mediocre men of shallow intellect and inferior understanding take upon themselves the superior charge of instructing such to people. Come off this business of learning from such latter-day lights and go back to the original. Read Ramakrishna and Vivekananda as they truly were and not as they are made out to be in the fractured understanding, in the fractional interpretation, in the altered presentation as per the convenience of latter-day preachers and writers. Read the source books. Let none stand between Thakur-Swamiji and you. These original works are well available. Avail of them.
