As narrated by Grandpa and Edited by Arundhati Khanwalkar

Sri Ramakrishna needs no introduction to Indians. Through his renowned disciple, Vivekananda, Sri Ramakrishna’s name was introduced to the west. He believed that the supreme power is one, call it Krishna, Christ or Allah. To convince himself of this he adopted Christianity and Islam successively and practiced each of them with great faith and devotion. According to him the experience of ecstasy of joy and closeness to the almighty is exactly the same, be it Hinduism, Christianity or Islam, or any other religion.

His teachings were as simple as his life and were often illustrated with stories.  In the next few months I will narrate some of his popular stories to stir your heart. They are witty but full of wisdom.
