15 reviews for Analyst and the Mystic

  1. Hari Om

    A captivating exploration. Kakar’s work provides a rich understanding of Ramakrishna’s spiritual journey. Highly recommended.

  2. Jayesh Mittal

    Good read and I enjoyed it. It was sometimes hard to follow and there was some terminology I struggled to grasp.

  3. Amit Rathore

    Well-written and informative, but I felt like it lacked a certain emotional depth. More academic than spiritual.

  4. Bhaumik Sachdeva

    Kakar’s insights are amazing. It explains the cultural context that shaped Ramakrishna, even if it can be dense at times.

  5. Yamini

    An intriguing deep dive into the life of Sri Ramakrishna. It got a little dry in the middle, but the ending made up for it.

  6. Arun Baral

    An excellent read! It shed light on new perspectives. I learnt a lot and understood more about the spiritual aspects.

  7. Rachagorla Naveen Kumar

    Interesting, but a little too focused on the psychological aspects for my taste. I was hoping for a more spiritual approach.

  8. Ayush Jain

    Fascinating! The book offers a unique perspective on mysticism. Some parts were dense, but overall, a very interesting read.

  9. Abhinav Yadav

    A thought-provoking exploration of Ramakrishna’s life. Kakar’s analysis is insightful, though sometimes feels a bit academic. Still a worthwhile read.

  10. Nishita Jagati

    It was good! The author did great work. The topic can be difficult to read if you are not into spiritual topic.

  11. Sakshi Jairath

    A very interesting study. I didn’t know much about Ramakrishna before and now I have great understanding.

  12. Meet Dipakkumar Modi

    Kakar’s book is well-researched and presents a compelling portrait of Ramakrishna. I found it enlightening and informative.

  13. Anand Shukla

    Decent book. It was interesting and informative but I wish it was more engaging.

  14. Anant Agarwal

    A solid book for anyone curious about mysticism and religious experience. Some sections are quite challenging to get through.

  15. Anil

    I enjoyed the book and appreciate the author’s work. It’s not an easy read if you’re unfamiliar with the topic
