Thus the words or Kathain Kathamrita remains deathless and guides one to a life of immortal enlightenment. The present book explores how the snow-white glow of the Gospel Reveals itself as a rainbow of varied ideas and inspirations when passed through the prism of the wise brains. The current effort was to focus on the relevance of The Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna in Diverse field of human interest and activity ranging from to humanism. The book will definitely intrigue a newer interest into the Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna as a Universal Treasure and for many a gist unopened which can make a fisherman a better fisherman, a student a better student and a lawyer a better lawyer a better lawyer as envisioned by Swami Vivekananda.
