"The Gospel of Ramakrishna" is actually a collection of conversations, teachings, and anecdotes of the Indian mystic and saint Sri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa. The book is not authored by Swami Abhedananda, but rather compiled by Mahendranath Gupta, a disciple of Ramakrishna, who is often referred to as "M." Swami Abhedananda and other disciples of Ramakrishna were involved in preserving and promoting his teachings, but they were not the primary compilers of "The Gospel of Ramakrishna."The book is considered a spiritual classic and provides valuable insights into the teachings and experiences of Ramakrishna, who is revered as a highly realized spiritual teacher and a mystic who practiced and realized the essence of various religious paths, including Hinduism, Islam, and Christianity. The conversations and interactions in the book offer a window into Ramakrishna's teachings on topics such as devotion, love, meditation, and the direct experience of God.
