About This Item
hardcover with dust jacket, 1971, 5th edition, 381pp, in good condition, jacket some wear, photo=book
The book is later issued as 'The eternal companion; life and teachings of Swami Brahmanada / a guidebook to spiritual practice' with ISBN 9780874810240 and 9781258931384.
At first glance, this is a biography and teachings of Swami Brahmananda, the spiritual son of Sri Ramakrishna. Yet the book is much more than that. The teachings grow as you grow spiritually. New meanings appear that you didn't see before, important instructions are noted that now make more sense.
The book is in essence an indispensable book for spiritual aspirants that covers material you won't easily find elsewhere. The key is to re-read it on a regular basis, maybe once a year, if not more often.We find here a treasure house of direction and inspiration.
Sample Teachings
Banish all fear and weakness. Never weaken your mind by thinking of past mistakes. Sin? Sin exists only in man's eye. In God's eye there is no sin. One glance of the divine and the sins of many many births are wiped away...
Never utter one word that would hurt another. tell the truth, but never a harsh truth...
Life is like a stream fast ebbing away. The day that is one gone can never be recalled. make the best use of your time. If you leave it till the last moment, it will be too late to cry "alas, alas."
