Sri Ramakrishna has received homage both from contemporary and posterior humanity. But the one man, who comprehended him in entirety, by rising to his own heights of effulgence, was Swami Vivekananda, his foremost disciple, co-partner, and heir. Of Ramakrishna and Vivekananda, it must be said that the one would have been, so to say, incomplete without the other. Vivekananda was rooted in Ramakrishna, and the Parama- Hamsa blossomed out in the Swami.
