For whatever length of time that you don't feel that God is the Master, you should return to the world, you should be conceived over and over. There will be no resurrection when you can genuinely say, 'O God, Thou craftsmanship the Master.' As long as you can't state, 'O Lord, Thou alone workmanship genuine', you won't be discharged from the life of the world. This going and coming, this resurrection, is inescapable. There will be no freedom. Further, what would you be able to accomplish by saying, 'It is mine'? The chief of a bequest may state, 'This is our garden; these are our love seats and furniture.' But when he is expelled by the ace, he hasn't the privilege to take away even a chest of useless mango-wood given to him for his utilization. The sentiment of 'I and mine' has secured the Reality. Due to this we don't see Truth. The accomplishment of Chaitanya, Divine Consciousness, isn't conceivable without the learning of Advaita, Non-duality. In the wake of acknowledging Chaitanya one appreciates Nityananda, Eternal Bliss.

(p.308 The Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna, Thakur's words to lovers on 16 Oct,1883.)
