Sayings of Ramakrishna 78

So long as a man is far from the market, he hears a loud and indistinct buzzing only, something like "Ho! Ho!"

But when he enters the market he no longer hears the uproar, but perceives distinctly that someone is bargaining for potatoes, another for brinjal, and so on. 

As long as a man is far away from God, he is in the midst of the noise and confusion of reason, argument, and discussion. 

But when once a person approaches the Almighty, all reasonings, arguments, and discussions cease, and he understands the mysteries of God with vivid and clear perception.
