Letter #01 Sri Ramakrishna Saranam


Dear,

        I have received your letter. I may have initiated many persons but on initiating you I have got a relief or delight. My mind is filled up with pleasure having given Sannyasa or Brahmacharya, but rarely have I got such delight having initiated house-holders. Do know I keep faith on you. I expect sure success in your life.

        Always remember the advice of Sri Sri Thakur (Sri Ramakrishna Dev). Try to remain brother and sister after having one or two children.

        Try to spend your maximum time in spiritual practice, Saranam (Remembrance) and Manana (reasoning). Of course do office work sincerely and honestly. Give stress on meditation.

Always keep a care-free idea that Sri Thakur and Maa (Srima Sarada Devi) are behind you. Never still think ill of others even by mistake. Regard equally both enemy and friend.

        Sri Thakur provides energy if one thinks honest thought. Patience and perseverance is a vital part in the life of a devotee. If you go on like this for six months you will find yourself entered the world of realization.

        I am well by the benediction of Sri Sri Maa. Do let me know how you all are. Know my hearty affection.
