M., THE APOSTLE & THE EVANGELIST - XV M., the writer of Sri Sri Ramakrishna Kathamrita Mahendranath Gupta, universally known as M. was an erudite scholar of the Calcutta University. He came in contact with Sri Ramakrishna on 26th of February 1882 – a divine dispensation which turned this householder devotee into a sage. Sri Ramakrishna later said to him: “... You belong to the ever-perfect class … you are my own, of the same substance as father and son ... You are one of those who trade in the jewellery of the Spirit ... You will have to do a little of the Divine Mother’s work … You will have to narrate Bhagavata to people …” M. lived and recorded Sri Sri Ramakrishna Kathamrita, which is the “Bible of the countless devoted to the Great Master, Sri Ramakrishna.” About this everlasting monument, the Veda-like great classic of this age, the Holy Mother wrote in a letter to M., “One day as I heard you reading from the Kathamrita I felt as if he (Sri Ramakrishna) himself was talking.” Swami Vivekananda in overflowing praise declared, “It is indeed wonderful. The move is quite original. It has been reserved for you, this great work.” Swami Tapasyananda said: “If there is in the world any one text that comes very near the original teaching of a God- man, it is the record of M. and M. alone.” M., the Apostle & the Evangelist A continuation of M.’s Sri Sri Ramakrishna Kathamrita A guide to Indian culture & Self-knowledge VOLUME XV By SWAMI NITYATMANANDA Translated By Dharm Pal Gupta SRI MA TRUST 579, Sector 18-B, Chandigarh – 160 018, India. http://www.kathamrita.org Phone: +91-172-2724460 iv Published by The President, Sri Ma Trust, 579, Sector 18-B, Chandigarh (India) 160 018 Phone: +91-172-2724460, +91-98153-30032 Email: [email protected] http://www.kathamrita.org © 2017. All rights reserved The fifteenth of the sixteen volume work First Edition ISBN: 978-81-88343-15-7 (this volume) ISBN: 978-81-88343-10-2 (set) ACKNOWLEDGEMENT When Revered Swami Nityatmananda was deeply involved in composing the Bengali ‘Sri Ma Darshan’ from his daily diaries, Revered Swami Saradeshananda was also living at the Tulsi Math in the holy land of Rishikesh. Swami Saradeshananda, the privileged tapasvi blessed with the service of the Holy Mother, helped Swami Nityatmananda in many ways to accomplish this great and noble work. The sevakas of Sri Ma Trust and Swami Nityatmananda are ever grateful to him for this unrepayable debt. I am an insignificant person. But I live by the side of an ocean, and I keep with me a few pitchers of seawater. When a visitor comes, I entertain him with that. What else can I speak of but his words? – M. Publisher’s Note It gives us great pleasure to present our readers the first edition of the fifteenth volume of “M., the Apostle and Evangelist.” In this volume, Swami Nityatmananda has described vivid scenes of the Belur Math, including his initiation into sannyasa by Mahapurusha Maharaj. During Swamiji’s stay in the Belur Math, he visits Master Mahashay occasionally. So this volume depicts Mahapurusha Mahashay, an ideal sannyasi, and Sri M., an ideal householder. The former was the dīkṣā guru and latter the śikṣā guru of Swamiji. In 1958 Srimati Ishwar Devi Gupta, the second president of Sri Ma Trust, discovered invaluable pearls in the Bengali “Sri Ma Darshan”. Thereafter, she started the herculean task of translating them into Hindi as a prayerful offering for her own sake and for Hindi-speaking brothers and sisters. Subsequently, these were translated into English by Sri Dharm Pal Gupta with the assistance of few devotees and this translation is now appearing as these volumes. The Sanskrit text has been transliterated for the benefit of English-speaking readers. It has taken few years to get the book into a printed form. So the reader will find two different fonts for the transliterated text, to adapt to Unicode font for transliteration. Over a period of time the translations have been made easier for the reader to assimilate as the phrases have been made more current in usage, for example the phrase ‘lust and greed’ is being globally used rather than ‘woman and gold’. Sri Ma Trust offers sincere gratitude to all those devotees and friends, who are helping in any way to viii finance produce, edit, publish and distribute the volumes. Special mention must be made of: Edith Tipple Santa Barbara, California, USA Bob Adjemian, Vedanta Press & Catalog, Hollywood, USA Dr. Kamal Gupta, Noida, India Nitin Nanda, Sri Ma Trust, Chandigarh, India May our reade rs, friends and associates attain supreme bliss and peace – this is our heartfelt prayer at the feet of the Lord. The Publisher, Friday, 14 July, 2017 Sri M.’s Birth Anniversary The Author’s Blessings 1 Ever blessed Srimati Ishwar Devi Gupta, Devi, your Hindi translation of Sri Ma Darshan, being your holy offering in your devotions, is not only most beautiful, simple and artistic; it is equally lucid, expressive and true to the original. The work of translation is a dull affair, but because of your identification with the subject matter of the book, your translation has come out so lively and pleasing. It was indeed a difficult task to translate into Hindi this book on ‘Vedanta in daily life,’ in your sickly state of health, after learning the Bengali language. The main subject of Sri Ma Darshan is to show how to live the divine life, as described in the Vedas, in this world of happiness and sorrow. In the modern materialistic age, the times of Sri Ramakrishna, the avatara of the age and the image of the Vedas, Professor M. brought the Vedanta of the forest to the homes of householders and relived it in his own life in the 19 th and 20 th centuries exactly as it was practiced in the forests in the Vedic age in the lives of the rishis. Sri Ma Darshan is a living narrative of the life of Maharishi M. Besides, it is an interesting, living 1. Swami Nityatmananda, the author, blessed Srimati Ishwar Devi Gupta, who translated into Hindi Swamiji’s first volume of the Bengali Sri Ma Darshan and undertook to publish the rest of the volumes, on Shardiya Durga Navaratri Day, 1965. This text is its translation from Hindi. x annotated commentary and dialogue on Sri Sri Ramakrishna Kathamrita, the authentic text written by Sri M., which narrates the lila of Sri Ramakrishna in this age of science. By making a loving present of this great text to Hindi-speaking devotees, you have started a great jñāna- 1 yajña . Devi, seeing this great effort on your part, it spontaneously comes to my mind that Bhagavan Sri Sri Ramakrishna has taken possession of your heart and mind. I pray sincerely and humbly at his holy feet that he may inspire you to translate the remaining fourteen 2 parts in the same simple, sweet and pleasant language. This will bring great blessings in your life and make it sweeter. Besides, it will surely raise and spiritualize the life of the community. With all good wishes. Swami Nityatmananda Sri Ramakrishna Math Rishikesh, Himalayas Shardiya Durga Navaratri, 1965 1. Sacrificial rite of spiritual knowledge. 2. Now, there are a total of 16 volumes of Sri Ma Darshan . Prayer Om Thakur, our beloved Father! This day we open this centre named Sri Ramakrishna Sri Ma Prakashan Trust (Sri Ma Trust) to propagate your holy name to all people of the world in our humble way for the peace and happiness of all. Yourself, accompanied by the Holy Mother and your beloved disciples like Swami Vivekananda and revered ‘M.’, do bless us; be always with us; do guide us in the right direction. By this unselfish work, by this labour of love, may we realise your real nature, God-incarnate on earth! May we have peace and happiness real; may all beings of the universe be peaceful and happy; may the entire universe be the abode of peace and happiness, real and eternal!

Valpey The Palgrave Macmillan Animal Ethics Series Series Editors Andrew Linzey Oxford Centre for Animal Ethics Oxford, UK Priscilla N. Cohn Pennsylvania State University Villanova, PA, USA Associate Editor Clair Linzey Oxford Centre for Animal Ethics Oxford, UK In recent years, there has been a growing interest in the ethics of our treatment of animals. Philosophers have led the way, and now a range of other scholars have followed from historians to social scientists. From being a marginal issue, animals have become an emerging issue in ethics and in multidisciplinary inquiry. Tis series will explore the challenges that Animal Ethics poses, both conceptually and practically, to traditional understandings of human-animal relations. Specifcally, the Series will: • provide a range of key introductory and advanced texts that map out ethical positions on animals • publish pioneering work written by new, as well as accomplished, scholars; • produce texts from a variety of disciplines that are multidisciplinary in character or have multidisciplinary relevance.

    In the Name of Krishna: the Cultural Landscape of a North Indian Pilgrimage Town

    In the Name of Krishna: The Cultural Landscape of a North Indian Pilgrimage Town A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Sugata Ray IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Frederick M. Asher, Advisor April 2012 © Sugata Ray 2012 Acknowledgements They say writing a dissertation is a lonely and arduous task. But, I am fortunate to have found friends, colleagues, and mentors who have inspired me to make this laborious task far from arduous. It was Frederick M. Asher, my advisor, who inspired me to turn to places where art historians do not usually venture. The temple city of Khajuraho is not just the exquisite 11th-century temples at the site. Rather, the 11th-century temples are part of a larger visuality that extends to contemporary civic monuments in the city center, Rick suggested in the first class that I took with him. I learnt to move across time and space. To understand modern Vrindavan, one would have to look at its Mughal past; to understand temple architecture, one would have to look for rebellions in the colonial archive. Catherine B. Asher gave me the gift of the Mughal world – a world that I only barely knew before I met her. Today, I speak of the Islamicate world of colonial Vrindavan. Cathy walked me through Mughal mosques, tombs, and gardens on many cold wintry days in Minneapolis and on a hot summer day in Sasaram, Bihar. The Islamicate Krishna in my dissertation thus came into being.

The imagination of a poet holds no sweeter image than this.1 Motherhood was the most important function in the life of a Hindu woman. The birth of children sanctified the marriage bond. Although daughters were not highly valued, the birth of a son was of pivotal importance to the family. Temporally, he was the provider and inheritor of property; spiritually, he was the only one who could perform the ritual offering of oblations to ancestors. The son was the perpetuator of the family lineage.
  • Revisiting the Rationality of Reincarnation-Talk Ankur Barua

    Revisiting the Rationality of Reincarnation-Talk Ankur Barua

    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Apollo Revisiting the Rationality of Reincarnation-Talk Ankur Barua Faculty of Divinity, University of Cambridge A survey of the key arguments that have been developed for and against the rationality of belief in reincarnation shows that often the central dispute is not over what the ‘data’ are but how to assess the ‘data’ from specific metaphysical-hermeneutical horizons. By examining some of these arguments formulated by Hindu thinkers as well as their critiques – from the perspectives of metaphysical naturalism and Christian theology – we argue that one of the reasons why these debates remain intractable is that the ‘theory’ is underdetermined by the ‘data’, so that more than one set of the latter can be regarded as adequate explanations of the former. Keywords: Reincarnation, karma, Underdetermination A survey of the arguments for and against the doctrines of karma and reincarnation, as they are understood across the Hindu traditions, would reveal that the proponents and the critics often disagree not so much over what the ‘evidence’ is, but how to incorporate it within their wider conceptual horizons. As we will see in this essay, while one group would regard the absence of a certain kind of ‘data’ as falsifying the doctrines, this evidential gap would not be viewed by the other as a major epistemic defect. Therefore, one of the reasons why debates 1 for and against the ‘rationality’ of these doctrines continue to be intractable is, to use the vocabulary of philosophy of science, that the theory is underdetermined by the data, so that there are alternative theoretical frameworks that ‘fit’ the same set of data.

    Title: Women of Agency: the Penned Thoughts of Bengali Muslim

    Title: Women of Agency: The Penned Thoughts of Bengali Muslim Women Writers of 9th 20th the Late 1 and Early Century Submitted by: Irteza Binte-Farid In Fulfillment of the Feminist Studies Honors Program Date: June 3, 2013 introduction: With the prolusion of postcolornal literature and theory arising since the 1 9$Os. unearthing subaltern voices has become an admirable task that many respected scholars have undertaken. Especially in regards to South Asia, there has been a series of meticulouslyresearched and nuanced arguments about the role of the subaltern in contributing to the major annals of history that had previously been unrecorded, greatly enriching the study of the history of colonialism and imperialism in South Asia. 20th The case of Bengali Muslim women in India in the late l91 and early century has also proven to be a topic that has produced a great deal of recent literature. With a history of scholarly 19th texts, unearthing the voices of Hindu Bengali middle-class women of late and early 2O’ century, scholars felt that there was a lack of representation of the voices of Muslim Bengali middle-class women of the same time period. In order to counter the overwhelming invisibility of Muslim Bengali women in academic scholarship, scholars, such as Sonia Nishat Amin, tackled the difficult task of presenting the view of Muslim Bengali women. Not only do these new works fill the void of representing an entire community. they also break the persistent representation of Muslim women as ‘backward,’ within normative historical accounts by giving voice to their own views about education, religion, and society) However, any attempt to make ‘invisible’ histories ‘visible’ falls into a few difficulties.
  • What Is Moksha Approved.Cdr

    What Is Moksha Approved.Cdr

    What is Moksha? by AiR What is Moksha? by AiR PREFACE Moksha is supposed to be the most spiritual word in the Hindu religion. It is said that Moksha is the nal goal of every human being. Everybody speaks of Moksha. It is so common to read about Moksha in every scripture, in every good religious book that we place our hands on. But not many people understand the true meaning of Moksha. What is Moksha all about? Translated, it means Liberation, Enlightenment or Nirvana. But what is Liberation? From what must we be liberated? The common man is so busy in the world today that he does not even realize that this world is bondage. This world is like quick sand in which we are sinking and one ne day when our end arrives, we will sink only to be reborn and go through the cycle of death and rebirth again and again. Very few are fortunate to stop and to realize the truth, to ponder upon the fact that this world is a bondage and that we are actually lost in the delusion of this world, in the pleasure, power and possessions. We are imprisoned! The one who realizes this truth starts his journey towards Moksha, towards Liberation and Enlightenment. It is this Seeker who understands the meaning of Moksha and Liberation, who has the courage to start the journey to be liberated, only such few Divine Souls get the opportunity of understanding of Moksha, achieving and living with it. Rest of humanity lives to die and the cycle continues with Moksha remaining a distant dream.
  • A Study of Advaita Vedanta with Factors of Affecting Perceptions

    A Study of Advaita Vedanta with Factors of Affecting Perceptions

    Vol-4 Issue-6 2018 IJARIIE-ISSN(O)-2395-4396 A Study of Advaita Vedanta with Factors of Affecting Perceptions Ranjan Kumar Mishra1, Dr. Rajeev Kumar Awasthi2 1Research Scholar, OPJS University Churu Rajasthan 2Associate Professor, OPJS University Churu Rajasthan Abstract Advaita Vedanta is one of Indian classical thought's most learned and influential schools. It became the highest of Indian religious philosophies even in the medieval period, a trend enhanced in modern times due to the western interests in Advaita Vedanta, and the subsequent influence on western perceptions of Indian Hinduism. Advaita Vedanta is considered an idealistic monism most commonly. The Buddhist Madhyamaka and Yogacara were highly influenced, and he further developed monistic concepts, which are already present in the Uppanishads, to their extreme end. Gaudapada Gaudapadakarika is associated, according to Dandekar, with Buddhist ideas that are Upanishadic and "greatly impressed" that these ideas are mutually compatible. According to Milne, advaita is a negative word that means the' negation of a discrepancy' between the object and the subject or the perceiver. Milne argues that the word "monistic" is misleading because it confuses "denial of distinction" with "conflation into one." German then teaches monistic unity, but with the different assumptions of various theories regarding monisms. It is also misleading to call advaina vedanta "monistic." Jacqueline Hirst says that Adi Shankara puts a strong focus on "one's" mindset, as applied to all Upanishads, in his Brahma-sutra Bhasya. Nicholson points out that Advaita Vedanta includes rational elements of thought, both in its most ancient sources and in the writings of Shankara.

    The Contemplative Life – Most Revered Swami Atmasthanandaji Maharaj

    The Contemplative Life – Most Revered Swami Atmasthanandaji Maharaj. Most Revered Swami Atmasthanandaji Maharaj was the 15th President of the world -wide Ramakrishna Math and Ramakrishna Mission. In this article Most Revered Maharaj provides guidelines on how to lead a contemplative life citing many personal reminiscences of senior monks of the Ramakrishna tradition who lead inspiring spiritual lives. Source : Prabuddha Bharata – Jan 2007 SADHAN-BHAJAN or spiritual practice – japa, prayer and meditation – should play a very vital role in the lives of all. This is a sure way to peace despite all the hindrances that one has to face in daily life. The usual complaint is that it is very difficult to lead an inward life of sadhana or contemplation amidst the rush and bustle of everyday life. But with earnestness and unshakable determination one is sure to succeed. Sri Ramakrishna has said that a devotee should hold on to the feet of the Lord with the right hand and clear the obstacles of everyday life with the other. There are two primary obstacles to contemplative life. The first one is posed by personal internal weaknesses. One must have unswerving determination to surmount these. The second one consists of external problems. These we have to keep out, knowing them to be harmful impediments to our goal. For success in contemplative life, one needs earnestness and regularity. Study of the scriptures, holy company, and quiet living help develop our inner lives. I have clearly seen that all the great swamis of our Order have led a life of contemplation even in the midst of great distractions.
  • Sri Ramakrishna & His Disciples in Orissa

    Sri Ramakrishna & His Disciples in Orissa

    Preface Pilgrimage places like Varanasi, Prayag, Haridwar and Vrindavan have always got prominent place in any pilgrimage of the devotees and its importance is well known. Many mythological stories are associated to these places. Though Orissa had many temples, historical places and natural scenic beauty spot, but it did not get so much prominence. This may be due to the lack of connectivity. Buddhism and Jainism flourished there followed by Shaivaism and Vainavism. After reading the lives of Sri Chaitanya, Sri Ramakrishna, Holy Mother and direct disciples we come to know the importance and spiritual significance of these places. Holy Mother and many disciples of Sri Ramakrishna had great time in Orissa. Many are blessed here by the vision of Lord Jagannath or the Master. The lives of these great souls had shown us a way to visit these places with spiritual consciousness and devotion. Unless we read the life of Sri Chaitanya we will not understand the life of Sri Ramakrishna properly. Similarly unless we study the chapter in the lives of these great souls in Orissa we will not be able to understand and appreciate the significance of these places. If we go on pilgrimage to Orissa with same spirit and devotion as shown by these great souls, we are sure to be benefited spiritually. This collection will put the light on the Orissa chapter in the lives of these great souls and will inspire the devotees to read more about their lives in details. This will also help the devotees to go to pilgrimage in Orissa and strengthen their devotion.
