Christ The Messenger

Pages: 38About the Book The wave rises on the ocean, and there is a hollow. Again another wave rises, perhaps bigger than the former, to fall down again, similarly, again to rise-driving onward. In the march of events, we notice the rise and fall, and we generally look towards the rise, forgetting the fall. But both are necessary, and both are great. This is the nature of the universe. Whether in the world of our thoughts, the world of our relations in society, or in our spiritual affairs, the same movement of succession, of rises and falls, is going on. Hence great predominances in the march of events, the liberal ideals, are marshaled ahead, to sink down, to digest, as it were, to ruminate over the past-to adjust, to conserve, to gather strength once more for a rise and a bigger rise. The history of nations also has ever been like that. The great soul, the Messenger we are to study this afternoon, came at a period of the history of his race which we may well designate as a great fall. We catch only little glimpses here and there of the stray records that have been kept of his sayings and doings; for verily it has been well said, that the doings and sayings of that great soul would fill the world if they had all been written down. And the three years of his ministry were like one compressed, concentrated age, which it has taken nineteen hundred years to unfold, and who knows how much longer it will yet take! Little men like you and me are simply the recipients of just a little energy. A few minutes, a few hours, a few years at best, are enough to spend it all, to stretch it out, as it were, to its fullest strength, and then we are gone for ever. But mark this giant that came; centuries and ages pass, yet the energy that he left upon the world is not yet stretched, nor yet expended to its full. It goes on adding new vigour as the ages roll on. Now what you se

Living Hinduism
$12.00 Add to cartLiving Hinduism
– Highlights the scriptures, philosophy and practices living Hinduism – Encapsulates the essence of Hinduism – A product of long years of studying, learning and practicing Hinduism is neither an organized religion nor a proselytizing one. It is often described as a way of life, which gently nudges its followers – through its scriptures, mythologies, rituals, and practices to question deeply, live fully, and grow wholesomely in compassion and universal acceptance. Hinduism believes whatever inspires one to stay truly unselfish, be it a vocation, an ideology, or a faith, can lead one towards greater self-realization and ultimate freedom. Living Hinduism by Samarpan encapsulates this essence of Hinduism in a language that can be understood and appreciated by all, especially the younger generation, who need to know and understand what it means to be a Hindu, in an age of strident opinions and changing values.

Life in Indian Monasteries is a book of charming, inspirational anecdotes about many of the saintly monks of the Ramakrishna Order of India, founded in 1886 by Swami Vivekananda, in the name of his Guru, Sri Ramakrishna. The stories, written with an insider’s genuine understanding, reveal what Hindu monks do in their day-to-day lives, how they interact with one another, their humor, and their spiritual greatness. A holy man behaves with outsiders in one way, hiding his inner spiritual personality—his true self. This book mainly recounts anedotes about the hidden, true sides of many of the monks of the Ramakrishna Order. It covers most of the 20th century. Some of the anecdotes are the following: Brotherly Love To God-realized Souls the World is Divine Play Who Can Know a Knower of Brahman?
