SRI RAMAKRISHNA

At all midnight, he heard the jingle of anklets. He ran up the steps of the temple following the sound. What did he see? He saw Mother Kali as a young girl with flowing hair, looking out at the river Ganga!

From that day Sri Ramakrishna became a different person. He was fully God-possessed. But people thought that he had   become mad.

Sri Ramakrishna was now twenty-three years old. Some one said that if he got married he would become all right. So his relatives married him to a young girt named Saradamani.

When she came to live with him, Sri Ramakrishna said to her. "Look here; I worship all women as the Divine Mother Kali. I will worship you also. As the Divine Mother."

Like the ideal Indian wife, Saradamani did not want to stand in the way of her husband’s sadhana. So she dutifully agreed.
