Kali's Child: The Mystical and the Erotic in the Life and Teachings of Ramakrishna
Kripal, Jeffrey J. (Rice University, USA)
How can Ramakrishna's saintly status be reconciled with his eroticized language and actions? This book argues that the key to understanding him lies in Tantra and its equation of the mystical and the erotic, and that his homosexulity is linked to every aspect of his life and teachings.
