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.

More quotes by Ramakrishna
Try to cultivate love of God. You are born as a human being only to attain divine love.
Ramakrishna
When the divine vision is attained, all appear equal and there remains no distinction of good and bad, or of high and low.
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
Right discrimination is of two kinds analytical and synthetical. The first leads one from the phenomena to the Absolute Brahman, while by the second one knows how the Absolute Brahman appears as the universe.
Ramakrishna
The fool who repeats again and again: I am bound, I am bound, remains in bondage. He who repeats day and night: I am a sinner, I am a sinner, becomes a sinner indeed.
Ramakrishna
One must be very particular about telling the truth. Through truth one can realize God.
Ramakrishna
Live like a mud-fish: its skin is bright and shiny even though it lives in mud.
Ramakrishna
With sincerity and earnestness one can realize God through all religions. The Vaishnavas will realize God, and so will the Saktas, the Vedantists, and the Brahmos. The Mussalmans and Christians will realize Him too. All will certainly realize God if they are earnest and sincere.
Ramakrishna
One cannot be spiritual as long as one has shame, hatred, or fear.
Ramakrishna
The breeze of grace is always blowing set your sail to catch that breeze.
Ramakrishna
The sun can give heat and light to the whole world, but he cannot do so when the clouds shut out his rays. Similarly as long as egotism veils the heart, God cannot shine upon it.
Ramakrishna
The magnetic needle always points to the north, and hence it is that sailing vessel does not lose her direction. So long as the heart of man is directed towards God, he cannot be lost in the ocean of worldliness.
Ramakrishna
The way of love is as true as the way of knowledge. All paths ultimately lead to the same Truth. But as long as God keeps the feeling of ego in us, it is easier to follow the path of love.
Ramakrishna
By the mind one is bound by the mind one is freed. ... He who asserts with strong conviction: I am not bound, I am free, becomes free.
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
It is not lust alone that one should be afraid of in the life of the world. There is also anger. Anger arises when obstacles are placed in the way of desire.
Ramakrishna
Once a person has faith, he has achieved everything.
Ramakrishna
The waves belong to the water. Does the water belong to the waves?
Ramakrishna
The world is not impermanent if one lives there after knowing God.
Ramakrishna
As for me, I consider myself as a speck of the dust of the devotee's feet.
Ramakrishna
