		If the reorientation of bhakti as reflected in the songs of Ramprasad turns the goddess into a familiar figure, the mother in the rural household, it is only natural that the sorrows and sentiments associated with her life experience be replicated in relation to the deity herself.
		The mystic poet Ramprasad had a famous successor in the nineteenth century, Ramakrishna Paramahansa, who delighted in the songs written by his predecessor and acquired great fame as a mystic who had attained his goal.
		Non-duality was the truth, but like Ramprasad he wished to relish the joys of being a devotee, separate from the object of adoration — to taste sugar rather than become sugar.
