• Sri Ramakrishna (1836–1886) has been variously considered a mystic, a prophet, a devotee, and an early modern propounder of the harmony of religions. However, this spiritual luminary has seldom been considered a philosopher. Academic engagements with his life and precepts have been negligible. In Infinite Paths to Infinite Reality: Sri Ramakrishna and Cross-Cultural Philosophy of Religion, Ayon Maharaj ventures to correct this problem by writing “the first scholarly book in English on Sri Ramakrishna’s philosophy” (2), which “combines detailed exegesis with cross-cultural philosophical investigation” (3).
