I am bringing to Europe, as yet unaware of it, the fruit of a new autumn, a new message of the Soul, the symphony of India, bearing the name of Ramakrishna.--thus Romain Rolland
This Western biography of Ramakrishna, written by a winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature in the early 1900s, has become a classic. The beautiful translation from the French presents the story of Sri Ramakrishna in a captivating manner. Used in many colleges as an introduction to the saint.

Very inspiring read of the year for me. Indian Hindu mystic and spiritual leader he proclaimed the world's various religions as "so many paths to reach one and the same goal". his chief disciple Swami Vivekananda popularized his ideas, and founded the Ramakrishna Math, which provides spiritual training for monastics and householder devotees, and the Ramakrishna Mission, to provide charity, social work and education. I definitely recommend this wonder.
