More From Ramakrishna

Frequent not the company of immodest persons, especially if they be also impudent, as is generally the case; ...these corrupted souls and infected hearts scarcely speak to any, either of the same or a different sex, without causing them to fall in some degree from purity; they have poison in their eyes and in their breath, like basilisks. on the contrary, keep company with the chaste and virtuous; often meditate upon and read holy things; for the word of god is chaste, and makes those also chaste that delight in it.

Let us consider the actual, worldly jew - not the sabbath jew, as bauer does, but the everyday jew. ... what is the worldly religion of the jew? huckstering. what is his worldly god? money. money is the jealous god of israel, in face of which no other god may exist. money degrades all the gods of man - and turns them into commodities. the bill of exchange is the real god of the jew. his god is only an illusory bill of exchange. the chimerical nationality of the jew is the nationality of the merchant, of the man of money in general.

The great constructive energies of the child ... have hitherto been concealed beneath an accumulation of ideas concerning motherhood. we used to say it was the mother who formed the child; for it is she who teaches him to walk, talk, and so on. but none of this is really done by the mother. it is an achievement of the child. what the mother brings forth is the baby, but it is the baby who produces the man. should the mother die, the baby still grows up and completes his work of making the man.

Mother, i am young. mother, i am just eighteen. i am strong. i will work hard, mother. but i do not want this child to grow up just to work hard. what must i do, mother, what must i do to make a different world for her? how do i start?" "the secret lies in the reading and the writing. you are able to read. every day you must read one page from some good book to your child. every day this must be until the child learns to read. then she must read every day, i know this is the secret
