Ramakrishna and His Disciples Hardcover – 30 July 2002

Reading this book about Sri Ramakrishna is a blessing. To get to know a spiritual "phenomenon" so deeply, and closely is a true blessing. The writer has explained a lot of spiritual terms really well and it's an easy book to read and engaging as well. It felt like I was getting to know pure love.

I had read it once about 25 years ago. Now I am pleased to have my own copy. I will read it till the end. This book has lot of things to teach us.

Go for this book, this is the best of best to learn about Sri sri Thakur and the basis of Indian spirituality and the basis of dharma of all religion especially Sanatan religion.The perspective from which the writer describes Sri Sri Ramkrishna will rejoice you. Superb book.This book is gem.

It pointed out a weak mind like mine towards a correct course. To utmost sublime and simple truth, the soul must thrive. As God wills...

What is amazing about the work is that the development of an oriental mystic can be described in an objective vein so characteristic of a searching ( yes, probably restive too ) western mind.

A must read to understand India's true spiritual gift to the world. Although some events might seem unbelievable, ramakrishna was an exemplar devotee of God. Isherwood puts across relevant facts that somebody who is reading about Ramakrishna for the first time would want to know.

A religious adventure !A should read book.Jai shri rama !Jai Shri Krishna !Jai Shri ramakrishna !

One of the best books I have read in my life. A book written by real bhakta of Sri Ramakrishna. Mind blowing book.

A brilliant biography of what many considered God incarnate in Sri Ramakrishna. An added plus are the 16 pictures, 5 of the six known photographs of the Bhagavan! A must read for all followers of Advaita Vedanta.

Amazing book. Well written. I read it slowly because I didn't want it to end. Absolutely loved it

Although written by an excellent author,and even though I was interested to obtain his insight into the Hindu religion, I didn't enjoy this book much because I wasn't convinced about the central character. In fact, it may be an excellent account of the life of Ramakrishna, but I was not persuaded. I haven't finished reading the book and I do not think I shall.

Excellent view into the masters teachings and life, found it insightful and inspring. First hand perspective on a modern day saint

A great read about an eastern culture so foreign to that of the west, yet so intreging.
