Even today we hear of supernatural ways in which the devotees leave their bodies. It is reported that they get divine visions at that time, and that some leave their bodies with the Master’s name on their lips. All the devotees of the Master will have a higher state hereafter; there’s no doubt about that.

Face a picture of Sri Ramakrishna and keep thinking of him. That will certainly be as good as meditation.
