Devotees of Ramkrishna

Ramkrishna was looking from the top of the roof of Garden House of Kassipore to its bottom. At the bottom of the Garden House of Kassipore there were waiting more than thirty devotees. All of them were family members, namely, Girish and his brother Atul, Ram, Nabagopal, Haramohan,Baikuntha, Kishoree, Haran, Ramlal, Akshoy, Upendranath Majumdar, Cook Brahmman Gangulee, Bhupati, Upendranath Mukhopadhyay, Harish and Narendranath. Narendranath used to do meditation every night by lighting incense-pot at one end of the Garden house.
The devotees were ready to receive cloth dyed with red ochre.and string with beads.
Ramkrishna came down along with Ramlal to hand over their dues.Girish was at the front of the que.  
Ramakrishna went into a trance. he began to say " Chaitanya hok, Chaitanya hok ( get into senses)." After few hours he went upstairs.
A truth came out by interaction with Ramakrishna.
" The 'soul' , one believes, is not born nor  will it die." It is easy to say, but it is difficult to practice. That is why Rasmakrishna said, " became death-conscious" . Why he said so? Because men are fond living in which he or she belongs. What is living ? It is nothing but revolving in a wheel of practices and by this way we gradually come nearer to our death or in other words to go into a non-existence state from a existence state. That is what "I". Ramkrishna said this is the state of 'raw I', which says that the objects earmarked in my name is mine. Nobody has any right in that. ramakrishna said nothing is yours, because when your eyes will shut down for ever, nothing will be marked as yours. All these objects are transient. then what is eternal ? Ramakrishna  said , "It is God".
it is God
