RAMAKRISHNA ANANDA

Spiritual Hush

What is it like to see God?

The science of meditation leads to the experience of the hush, the beginning of relating directly to Spirit. As we grow into deeper levels of communion with the Lord, marvelous experiences come our way. Allow Sri Ramakrishna’s words to propel you forward on the spiritual path.

Sunday Morning Talks

Experience the Hush

Sri Ramakrishna, when asked what it was like to see God, replied:  It’s like the hush that happens right when the curtain goes up. All the thoughts of the mind, feelings of the body, and all other preoccupations stop. Suddenly there is a hush. Thoughts and feelings disappear as God appears in the mind.
