From Publishers Weekly
19th-Century Classics Made NewThe Vedanta Society offers a new rendition of the classic biography Sri Ramakrishna and His Divine Play, translated from the original Bengali by Swami Chetanananda, a monk of the Ramakrishna Order. The colossal task of translating the early 20th-century book took him five years. The epic work's hagiographic life story of Sri Ramakrishna (1836-1886), possibly India's most important 19th-century saint, is particularly timely in its testimony of the vitality of all religions and the need for a harmonious religious pluralism.
