     “I am bringing to Europe the fruit of a new autumn, a new message of the Soul, the symphony
      of India, bearing the name of Ramakrishna. It can shown … that this symphony, like those of
      our classical masters, is built up of a hundred different musical elements emanating from the
      past. But the sovereign personality concentrating in himself the diversity of these elements and
      fashioning them into a royal harmony, is always the one who gives his name to the work,
      though it contains within itself the labour of generations. And with his victorious sign he
      marks a new era.”

                                                       – Romain Rolland, The Life of Ramakrishna
