See God with Open Eyes

See God with Open Eyes: Meditation on Ramakrishna this title raises several questions: Does God have a form? Can we see God as we see other objects and beings in this world? Can we hear or touch God? Ramakrishna answered these questions with his words and through his life and many of those answers are collected in this book. When God takes a human form, we want to see how that avatar lives, acts, talks, walks, laughs, cries, eats, and sleeps like other human beings. This book depicts how lovers of God can establish and deepen their relationship with Ramakrishna through prayer and meditation, and that strong bond makes them feel safe, secure, and saved.

Swami Adbhutananda was the only unlettered monastic disciple of Ramakrishna. This is the story of his transformation from the orphan boy Latu into a sage, whose profound simplicity inspired Easterners and Westerners alike. Latu is Ramakrishna s greatest miracle. Having absolutely no education, he attained the highest wisdom simply by the grace of the Master s touch. - Swami Vivekananda
