 | Abhaa is a woman from Mumbai, MH, India. The whole history of humanity is a continuous fight against nature, and man gains in the end.Coming to the internal world, there too the same fight is going on , this fight between the animal man and the spiritual man, between light and darkness; and here too man becomes victorious. He, as it were , cuts his way out of nature to freedom.
~~Swami Vivekananda~~

For five years Naren ( Swami Vivekananda) closely watched the Master, never allowing himself to be carried away by blind faith, always testing the words and actions of Sri Ramakrishna in the crucible of reason.
It cost him many sorrows and anguish before he accepted Sri Ramakrishna as the guru and the ideal of spiritual life.
But when the acceptance came, it was wholehearted, final and irrevocable.
The Master, too, was overjoyed to find the disciple who doubted, and knew that Naren was the only one to carry his message to the world.
