Stories About The Masters

It has been said that if you lose spiritual feelings for your own Master, or if you begin to lose your own height, it helps to read stories about other Masters. If you read about these other Masters, you are bound to shed tears. Then you will get back your old connection, your old feelings for your Master. It has happened many, many times. By reading about the other Masters, you are able to identify more with your own Master.

I know of many cases where people have read M’s immortal book Sri Sri Ramakrishna Kathamrita when they were not doing well in their spiritual life. And they were able to get back their love for their Master.
