Ramanuja
It is an uncommon and auspicious occasion when Swami Ramakrishnananda, a saint and enlightened soul who was a direct pupil of Sri Ramakrishna, takes on the duty of penning the life story of Sri Ramanuja, an Acharya and global teacher. No writer, no matter how learned and skilled, can achieve the kind of illuminating insight that a saint has by virtue of his illumination in his work. From this perspective, Swami Ramakrishnananda's Bengali biography of Sri Ramanuja is a singular creation. Upon perusing the pages of this book, one will undoubtedly experience the author's intense dedication to Sri Ramanuja, regardless of their orthodox or heterodox affiliation. Swami Buddhananda translated the text into English.
