The Role of the Ramakrishna Mission and Human
TOWARDS SERVING THE MANKIND: THE ROLE OF THE RAMAKRISHNA MISSION AND HUMAN DEVELOPMENT IN INDIA Karabi Mitra Bijoy Krishna Girls’ College Howrah, West Bengal, India sanjay_karabi @yahoo.com / [email protected] Abstract In Indian tradition religious development of a person is complete when he experiences the world within himself. The realization of the existence of the omnipresent Brahman --- the Great Spirit is the goal of the spiritual venture. Gradually traditional Hinduism developed negative elements born out of age-old superstitious practices. During the nineteenth century changes occurred in the socio-cultural sphere of colonial India. Challenges from Christianity and Brahmoism led the orthodox Hindus becoming defensive of their practices. Towards the end of the century the nationalist forces identified with traditional Hinduism. Sri Ramakrishna, a Bengali temple-priest propagated a new interpretation of the Hindu scriptures. Without formal education he could interpret the essence of the scriptures with an unprecedented simplicity. With a deep insight into the rapidly changing social scenario he realized the necessity of a humanist religious practice. He preached the message to serve the people as the representative of God. In an age of religious debates he practiced all the religions and attained at the same Truth. Swami Vivekananda, his closest disciple carried the message to the Western world. In the Conference of World religions held at Chicago (1893) he won the heart of the audience by a simple speech which reflected his deep belief in the humanist message of the Upanishads. Later on he was successful to establish the Ramakrishna Mission at Belur, West Bengal. -

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. -

Sri Ramakrishna Kathamrita”
ICPR NATIONAL SEMINAR ON “SRI RAMAKRISHNA KATHAMRITA”, Indian Council of Philosophical Research (ICPR) has decided to organize a 3- day National Seminar on “Sri Ramakrishna Kathamrita”. The seminar will be held at India International Centre, New Delhi. The tentative dates will be during 21-23 February, 2018. Those interested are invited to present well researched learned papers on a suitable topic relating to the theme as indicated in the enclosed theme note and submit the same to the undersigned latest by 31 January, 2018. Dr.Ranjan K. Ghosh (M) 9810395394; e-mail:<[email protected] Director, National Seminar on “Sri Ramakrishna Kathamrita” THREE DAY NATIONAL SEMINAR ON SRI RAMAKRISHNA KATHĀMŖITA (Theme Note) Sri Ramakrishna Kathamrita or The Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna is a recorded conversation of Sri Ramakrishna (1836-1886 AD) – a spiritual Master of Bengal – with his disciples, devotees and visitors. Mahendranath Gupta, an intimate disciple of Sri Ramakrishna under the pseudonym of “M”, recorded in writing the Master’s day-to-day life along with his spiritual conversation with almost stenographic accuracy from February 1882 to April 1886, which is partially reminiscent of Socrates’ dialogue with his disciples, each of which conversations was recorded by their intimate disciples, namely, Mahendranath Gupta and Plato respectively. The contents of these conversations were deeply mystical in nature in the sense that these sayings described the inner spiritual experiences of Sri Ramakrishna. As a close disciple of Sri Ramakrishna, Mahendranath Gupta has brought out in his recording the thought-provoking deeper dimension of the simple and intimate utterances of the great prophet in the light of ancient scriptures of India especially the Vedanta. -

Chapter - One: Agriculture and Allied Activities
Chapter - One: Agriculture and Allied Activities I. AGRICULTURE AND ALLIED ACTIVITIES A. Agriculture a) The target fixed by Govt. of India for agricultural growth at 4% for the State of West Bengal which is around 3.5% now. Considering the agro-climatic condition, infrastructure, resources etc. the projected foodgrains production growth rate has been revised and fixed at 4.5% during XIth plan period. Previously the average foodgrains productivity growth was calculated taking into account Xth plan average productivity and XIth plan projected average productivity and which was projected 5.91% i.e. around 6% and production growth was calculated considering the production of 2011-12 (The last year of XIth plan) and present level of production (which was around 160 lakh tonnes) which was around 15%. However, all the data are revised for Xlth plan period and the strategy for achieving new growth rate are sending for consideration along with revised target. The production of foodgrains will be increased due to increase of cropping intensity. b) Discussion on Food Security West Bengal is surplus in production of rice but there are deficits in the production of wheat and pulses. The requirement of foodgrains during 2006-07 was around 168.39 lakh M.T. and the production was 159.75 lakh M.T. The deficit was mainly due to less production of wheat and pulses. Keeping this in mind various state plan and Centrally Sponsored Scheme will be in operation during eleventh plan period. National Food Security Mission has been started across 12 districts of the State to boost up the production of wheat, pulses and rice. -
