The Gospel of Râmakrishna

The first extended presentation of Ramakrishna’s conversations in the West, thirty-five years before Nikhilananda’s translation. Shorter and more “ordered” than the Kathamrita, it favours parables and general teachings over scenes of life at Dakshineswar. It is in the public domain and fully transcribed on Wikisource.
