In order to realise Mohammed the Prophet, Sri Ramakrishna strictly walked in the path of Islamic religion, followed strictly its principles. Finally on one fortunate day he had the beautiful divine vision of Mohammed before him. He enjoyed the vision with full divine heart, but with this alone he was never satisfied. His ambition was to know where this vision of Mohammed would go and merge if meditation was continued further. Accordingly he continued his tapasya. To his wonder and satisfaction, he saw the vision merging with the Absolute-Reality the Para-Brahman losing its name and form or losing its separate identity. In the same way Sri Ramakrishna strictly and ardently followed the principles of Christianity and lived according to them deeply meditating upon Jesus Christ.

One day he had the beautiful vision of Jesus Christ. He enjoyed the vision heartily and continued his meditation to see where would the vision go and merge with what. To his joy he saw that the vision of Christ also merged with the attribute- less , absolute reality as was in the case of Mohammed the prophet's vision.

What a beautiful experimental spiritual verification made successfully by this unique spiritual scientist! In these days of confusion where the unity between one religion and other is being blurred, this experimental spiritual verification made by the great experimental spiritual scientist, Sri Ramakrishna. can be used as a searchlight by all religious leaders of the nation. In the limelight of his universal spiritual teachings, not India alone, the whole world, could solve almost all its, social and religious problems. Next we can quote another interesting spiritual observation made by this great master.

Vedanta speaks about many 'Triputies"culmination of three entities such as Jiva. Jagat and Jagadeeshwara. the knower, the known and the knowledge; the seer, the seeing and the seen; Bhakta (devotee), Bhagavata (the book on Bhagavan) and Bhagavan etc.. etc. Direct experience of the culmination (Trip uti) of Bhakta, Bhagavata and Bhagavan by Sri Ramakrishna is unique and very interesting. Once the great master attended a Bhagavata-saptaha. During parayana (discourse) he completely surrendered to Lord Vishnu and fell into deep trance during which period, he observed bright rays of light emanating from the feet of Lord Vishnu, falling on the book Bhagavata and from Bhagavata reaching the heart of the master and again going back to the feet of the Lord, thus completing the circuit. What a fine and unique experimental verification of the Vedantic Triputi by this unique spiritual scientist - Ramakrishna. the great spiritual master!
