Sri Ramakrishna, one of the greatest spiritual personalities of our time, is widely recognised as the prophet of the harmony of religions. After perfecting the practice of several religions - including Christianity, Islam and various traditions of Hinduism - he declared, "As many faiths, so many paths." This modern, historically accurate portrayal of the life of Sri Ramakrishna explains several systems of Indian religious thought intimately connected with his life. It examines Sri Ramakrishna and his teachings and succeeds in conveying the story of the great mystic and the deeper spirit of that story, known as the Ramakrishna legend.
