Ramakrishna Paramahamsa

Recorded name: 室利·罗摩克里希纳

Sri Ramakrishna was a nineteenth-century Bengali religious teacher who discussed spiritual practice and different religious traditions through questions, answers, and parables.

Original Chinese introduction

室利·罗摩克里希纳是19世纪孟加拉宗教教师,以问答和比喻讲述修行及不同宗教传统。

Ramakrishna's teachings circulated mainly through dialogues with disciples and visitors. He left no writings of his own; Mahendranath Gupta compiled a Bengali dialogue collection, Kathamrita, from records, and English translations appeared later. These texts preserve questions and answers in particular settings while also reflecting the selections of recorders and editors. The religious and social-service organizations later established by his disciples have their own histories of development.

Original Chinese context

罗摩克里希纳的教导主要通过与弟子、访客的对话流传。他没有留下自著,马亨德拉纳特·古普塔根据记录编成孟加拉语对话集《Kathamrita》,后来又出现英语译本。这些文本保存了具体情境中的问答,也带有记录者和编辑者的选择。其弟子后来建立的宗教与社会服务组织,则有各自的发展历史。

1 included contribution has incomplete evidence; the relevant gap appears with that contribution.

Original scope note

This research record currently includes 1 outcome within a limited scope; M and attribution shares are revisable judgments. Uncovered content and negative effects not yet clarified are not treated as zero; specific gaps appear in the item-by-item explanations.

CALCULATION

How the score is calculated

Q = 10^(M/2) − 1; Lᵢ = aᵢ × Qᵢ; L = Σ Lᵢ; S = 2 × log₁₀(1 + L).

M is an outcome’s assessed magnitude and a is the person’s allocated share. A standalone score is only a per-item reference; the attributed light from distinct contributions is what can be combined.

01Oral Religious Teachings and the 'Kathamrita' Dialogue Collection口述宗教教导与《Kathamrita》对话集OUT-SL0553-1882-1942-ORAL-TEACHINGS-KATHAMRITA-CORPUS

Record year1882–1942

summaryForms a researchable oral corpus through extensive contextualized Q&A, parables, and cross-traditional explanations, preserved by Gupta as a text with dates and situational contexts of individuals.

Original Chinese · summary

以大量情境化问答、比喻和跨传统解释形成可研究口述语料,并由Gupta保存为带日期和人物情境的文本。

M rationaleM5.5 assesses the documented outcome of interpreting dialogues and preserving texts, not the truth of religious revelations. Academic abstracts support the synthesis of Vedanta, Tantra and other traditions. The South Asianist identifies Ramakrishna as an oral teacher and Gupta as responsible for compilation and publication; Ramakrishna therefore receives only one-quarter of the credit.

Original Chinese · M rationale

M5.5评可研究的对话解释与文本保存终态,不评启示真伪。学术摘要支持其综合吠檀多与密教等传统;South Asianist明确其为口述教师、Gupta负责编纂出版,因此本人只占四分之一。

attribution rationaleRamakrishna .25, Gupta .30, dialogue participants .10, religious prehistory .15, translators .08, publication chain .05, unresolved .07.

Original Chinese · attribution rationale

罗摩克里希纳.25,Gupta .30,对话者.10,宗教前史.15,译者.08,出版链.05,未解析.07。

overlap boundaryThe recordable dialogues from 1882–1886 and the five-volume Kathamrita from 1902–1932, up to the major English translations by 1942, represent the oral-to-text final state; the content scope includes cross-traditional interpretations such as Vedanta and Tantra. Excludes religious truth value, unrecorded private experiences, Vivekananda's independent philosophy, and the Ramakrishna Mission's later social services.

Original Chinese · overlap boundary

1882–1886可记录对话及1902–1932五卷Kathamrita、至1942主要英语译本的口述—文本终态;内容范围含吠檀多、密教等跨传统解释。排除宗教真值、未经记录的私人体验、Vivekananda独立哲学、Ramakrishna Mission后世社会服务。

Evidence gapsNot verified volume-by-volume against the Bengali original, Gupta's diaries, and English translation edits. The historical context of cross-traditional practices and the voices of female dialogue participants still require non-sectarian historical sources.

Original Chinese · evidence gaps

未逐卷核对孟加拉原文、Gupta日记与英语译本删改。;跨传统实践的历史情境及女性对话者声音仍需非宗派史料。

BOUNDARIES NOT COUNTED

Not included in this score

These subjects are recorded as exclusions and are not silently treated as zero or as part of the included outcomes.

Disciples' group and the posthumous Ramakrishna Order/Mission

弟子团体与身后Ramakrishna Order/Mission

Reason His teachings are a spiritual input, but the formal organization was established after his death by Vivekananda and disciples. Current evidence is insufficient to list organizational services as his individual delivery.

Original Chinese reason

其教导是精神输入,但正式组织由Vivekananda及弟子在其死后建立;现证据不足以把组织服务单列为本人交付。

Biographical miracles, private practices, and healing narratives

生平神迹、私人修行与疗效叙事

Reason Sectarian materials cannot convert miracles or inner experiences into historical positive outcomes; this may be reopened only when a publicly verifiable terminal method exists.

Original Chinese reason

宗派材料不能把神迹或内在体验转成历史正成果;仅在有公开可核方法终态时重开。
