The ‘Five Commandments’ of Sri Ramakrishna for householders: 1. Keep chanting the God’s name, thinking of his glory. 2. Do Sadhusanga, Satsang, being with holy people; visit places where there are holy thoughts. 3. Go to a solitary place once in a while and meditate. Protect and nurture your godly feelings and thoughts. 4. Constantly deliberate and discriminate about right and wrong, true and untrue, real and unreal, ‘Nitya’ and ‘Anitya’, ‘Sat’ and ‘Asat’. God alone is true, ‘Nitya’, permanent, real, ‘Sat’, Right. 5. Discharge your duties as a householder with full responsibility but always keep in mind that none of this belongs to you. 179 BARTLEY ROAD | SINGAPORE 539784
Sri Ramakrishna was a living embodiment of Godliness. His sayings are not those of a mere learned man, but are pages from the book of life. Mahendranath Gupta has recorded his sublime utterances with stenographic precision in The Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna. Therefore, they are a beacon light to all who tread the spiritual path, to whichever race or religion they may belong. This book is available with us for sale at a cost of S$20.
