More quotes by Ramakrishna
If a man prays to Thee with a yearning heart, he can reach Thee, through Thy grace, by any path.
Ramakrishna
Many people think they cannot have knowledge or understanding of God without reading books. But hearing is better than reading, and seeing is better than hearing. Hearing about Benares is different from reading about it but seeing Benares is different from either hearing or reading.
Ramakrishna
Through selfless work, love of God grows in the heart. Then through his grace one realize him in course of time. God can be seen. One can talk to him as I am talking to you.
Ramakrishna
All religions are true. God can be reached by different religions. Many rivers flow by many ways but they fall into the sea. They all are one.
Ramakrishna
Live like a mud-fish: its skin is bright and shiny even though it lives in mud.
Ramakrishna
Only two kinds of people can attain self-knowledge: those who are not encumbered at all with learning, that is to say, whose minds are not over-crowded with thoughts borrowed from others and those who, after studying all the scriptures and sciences, have come to realise that they know nothing.
Ramakrishna
Once a person has faith, he has achieved everything.
Ramakrishna
Imagine a limitless expanse of water: above and below, before and behind, right and left, everywhere there is water. In that water is placed a jar filled with water. There is water inside the jar and water outside, but the jar is still there. The 'I' is the jar.
Ramakrishna
Whoever wants God intensely, finds Him. Go and verify it in your own life.
Ramakrishna
If you desire to be pure, have firm faith, and slowly go on with your devotional practices without wasting your energy in useless scriptural discussions and arguments. Your little brain will otherwise be muddled.
Ramakrishna
God is everywhere but He is most manifest in man. So serve man as God. That is as good as worshipping God.
Ramakrishna
I have no disciple. I am the servant of the servant of Rama .
Ramakrishna
To work without attachment is to work without the expectation of reward.
Ramakrishna
The world is impermanent. One should constantly remember death.
Ramakrishna
Have love for everyone, no one is other than you.
Ramakrishna
Wisdom leads to unity, but ignorance to separation. So long as God seems to be outside and far away, there is ignorance. But when God is realised within, that is true knowledge.
Ramakrishna
Do not be small minded. Do not pray for gourds and pumpkins from God, when you should be asking for pure love and pure knowledge to dawn within every heart.
Ramakrishna
The compassion that you see in the kindhearted is God's compassion. He has given it to them to protect the helpless.
Ramakrishna
As a boy holding to a post or a pillar whirls about it with headlong speed without any fear or falling, so perform your worldly duties, fixing your hold firmly upon God, and you will be free from danger.
Ramakrishna
As for me, I consider myself as a speck of the dust of the devotee's feet.
Ramakrishna
