The Genesis of the Ramakrishna Order Baranagore Math
This booklet is detailing the history of Baranagar Math, the first monastery of the Ramakrishna Order. Established in late 1886, the Math represents the "germinated seeds" of the movement following Sri Ramakrishna’s passing.The intense sacrifice, dispassion (vairagya), and rigid penance of the young ascetics who lived there for five foundational years. It describes this period not as a fading memory, but as a glorious history that ensures the continuity of the Ramakrishna-Vivekananda Movement. Authored by Swami Vimalatmananda, the booklet explores the daily struggles, uniqueness, and spiritual "tapasya" of these monks, serving as a record of the Order’s emergence from a "sacrificial fire pit" into a global mission.
