Website dedicated to the Divine Mother, whose Mercy and
Compassion for suffering humanity, found Wonderful Expression in the
Embodiment of Satchitananda, known as Sri Sri Ramakrishna Paramahamsadeva.
The following is a brief excerpt from the Gospel of Sri
Ramakrishna. To obtain a copy of this book, please contact: the Vedanta
Society of Toronto
"You know I am a fool. I know nothing.
Then who is it that says all these things?
I say to the Divine Mother:
'O Mother, I am the machine and Thou art the Operator.
I am the house and Thou art the indweller.
I am the chariot and Thou art the Charioteer.
I do as Thou makest me do. I speak as Thou makest me speak;
I move as Thou makest me move. It is not I !
It is all Thou ! It is all Thou !'
Hers is the glory; we are only Her instruments."
Sri Ramakrishna points out that denying the operation of faith
is like denying the existence of stars because they are not
visible in the sky during daytime.
