Great Swan

Great Swan introduces the blissfully unconventional Bengali sage Ramakrishna. The sanctity, delightful playfulness, wisdom, power, devotion, and spiritual intensity of the most inspiring teachers of all time permeate every page.

In the Preface, author Lex Hixon states: This is not a conventional biography but a workbook. Ramakrishna comes along with these pages—to work side by side with us, clarifying our general understanding of religion as well as initiating or intensifying our particular experience of the mystic path.”

Meher Baba referred to Ramakrishna as “the Heralder of the Avataric Age” and “a rare type of Sadguru.”
