Paragraph 27

In plain words

Sri Ramakrishna: Oh, what a state I passed through! When this state first came, I couldn't tell you how the days and nights went by. Everyone said I had gone mad. That is why they married me off, in my state of madness. My first thought was that my wife too would live like this, eating and drinking. I went to my father-in-law's house, and there was a great sankirtan there. Nafar, Digambar Banerji's father and others came! A great sankirtan. Now and then I would wonder what was going to happen. Then again I would say, "Mother, if the landlords of the village make much of me, I shall know it is true." And they too would come to me unasked and talk with me.
