    Students dressed up like Ramakrishna Paramahamsa, Swami Vivekananda, Sharada Devi and others to the real history Sri Ramakrishna. The drama will inspire the students to emulate the greatness and spirituality of the saint.
Ramakrishna was initiated into Sanyaas or formal life of an ascetic during 1865 from Monk Totapuri. Totatpuri guided Ramakrishna through the rituals of renunciation and instructed him the teachings of Advaita Vedanta, Hindu philosophies dealing with non-dualism of spirit, and importance of Brahman. It was now that Ramakrishna attained his highest spiritual realization.
He thought only of Mother-Goddess Kali and constantly invoked her, but to no avail. Despair took possession of him. He decided that he was not giving enough, not showing enough love and that he had to eliminate all prejudices and attachments. Then he destroyed all his small property.
In fact, Mother Kali appeared before him. Numerous spiritual experiences began to come to him, and wonderful visions appeared.
From that day on, he constantly strove to repeat this state of deep immersion in the Divine consciousness – the state of trance (Samadhi) and plunged into it deeper and deeper. His way of worshiping the Divine Mother became even more non-canonical: for Ramakrishna, Mother was no longer a statue to be worshiped in a strictly prescribed manner. Now She was real, much more real than the world around her.
Foremost among his innumerable disciples was Swami Vivekananda, who was instrumental in establishing the philosophy of Ramakrishna at a global stage. Vivekananda established the Ramakrishna Mission in 1897 to carry out the visions of his Guru Ramakrishna and dedicated the establishment in servitude of the society.
