Back of photograph reads: "How Shri Ramakrishna restored Young Devotees In Trance to Consciousness - 'While listening to the song, one or two young devotees fell into trance.

The minds of these young men have not been scattered on wife, children, wealth or fame. So they are easily concentrated in the name of God."

It is through divine grace that with so much erudition you are still free from it." "Sir." Sarkar said excitedly, "Why, I know almost nothing. I don't feel any humiliation in learning from others, even from these young men, and I can even touch their feet." "I also tell them," said the Master, "as long as I live, I can learn from other." '"
