This original, authentic biography of Sri Ramakrishna, written by
the prominent householder disciple Ram Chandra Datta and first
published in 1890, was unavailable in English translation until
2014. This new rendering, the only English translation of the
unexpurgated fourth edition published during the author's lifetime
(1897), contains new information about Ramakrishna and different
versions of familiar stories. The author movingly narrates his
transformation from worldly, amoral atheist to faithful devotee
through the redeeming power of the living Avatara. Ram Chandra, a
distinguished chemist and elder paternal cousin of Swami
Vivekananda, was the first to proclaim publicly that Ramakrishna
was an Avatara (Incarnation of God) and the first to establish a
temple for his worship. This original biography of Ramakrishna
complements the other, later authentic biographies that all
together help us better visualize the life and teachings of the
saint.
