Guest guest Posted July 5, 2005 Report Share Posted July 5, 2005 Dear Faint Glow: Thank you for the Sri Ramakrishna reference. Awesome!!! Amma has said that Sri Ramakrishn was one of Her inspirations during Her early sadhana. In the 108 names of Ammachi numbers 56-60 refer to Sri Ramakrishna and/or Sri Sarada Devi. Jai Thakur! Jai Maaa!
