About the Book

See God with Open Eyes: Meditation on Ramakrishna this title raises several questions: Does God have a form? Can we see God as we see other objects and beings in this world? Can we hear or touch God? Ramakrishna answered these questions with his words and through his life and many of those answers are collected in this book. When God takes a human form, we want to see how that avatar lives, acts, talks, walks, laughs, cries, eats, and sleeps like other human beings. This book depicts how lovers of God can establish and deepen their relationship with Ramakrishna through prayer and meditation, and that strong bond makes them feel safe, secure, and saved.ReviewThanks to Swami Chetanananda for these powerful reflections on the meaning of authentic religious experience. For anyone sincerely interested in getting beyond the pop spirituality of our Internet age, this book will be a treasure. Meditation, prayer, the role of scripture, states of mystical awareness all these and more are discussed with profound insight, as inspired by the teachings and extraordinary experiences of Sri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa, certainly the most important spiritual luminary of our time. --Lance E. Nelson, Professor of Theology and Religious Studies, University of San Diego, CaliforniaSwami Chetanananda has performed a wonderful service in writing this treasure of a book. Using the life and teachings of Sri Ramakrishna as its template, this book is an almost comprehensive guide to the spiritual path. With its combination of meticulous research and spiritual insight, See God with Open Eyes displays the scholarly gifts as well as the depth of the practice of its author, a senior scholar-monk of the Ramakrishna Order. One hopes this book will be disseminated widely. --Dr. Jeffery D. Long, Professor of Religion and Asian Studies, Elizabethtown College, PennsylvaniaSwami Chetanananda s newest book strikes a different tone from his earlier books and is a welcome addition to his prolific contributions through the years. In this current book, he addresses the issue of meditation and the manner in which the practice of meditation may lead the seeker actually to see God as the title of his book suggests. The various chapters focus on how Ramakrishna himself can become an object of meditation: his physical form, his mind, his divine qualities, and so forth. The book is also a rich source of anecdotes from the life of Ramakrishna. --Gerald James Larson, Rabindranath Tagore Professor Emeritus, Indiana University, Bloomington, and Professor Emeritus, Religious Studies, University of California, Santa BarbaraAbout the AuthorSwami Chetanananda is a monk of the Ramakrishna Order. Before coming to the United States, he worked in the editorial and publication departments of Advaita Ashrama, Mayavati, Himalayas and also at its Calcutta branch. He was an assistant minister of the Vedanta Society of Southern California from 1971 to 1978. He came to St. Louis in March, 1978 and at present is the minister of the Vedanta Society of St. Louis. Swami Chetanananda has written, edited, and translated many important books on Ramakrishna, Vivekananda, and Vedanta.
