Sri Ramakrišna Paramahansa ( Ramkṛiṣṇa Pôromôhongśa ; 18. februar 1836 – 16. avgust 1886, rođen Ramakrišna "Gadadar" Čatopadijaj) bio je indijski hinduski mistik i svetac u Bengalu 19. veka. Ramakrišna je iskusio duhovne ekstazije od malih nogu, a bio je pod uticajem nekoliko religioznih tradicija, uključujući predanost boginji Kali, Tantri (šakta), Vajšnavi (bakti), i Advajti Vedanti. Kao sveštenik u hramu Dakšinešvar Kali, njegov mistični temperament i ekstazije postepeno su dovele do njegovog priznanja, privlačeći sebi razne duhovne učitelje, društvene vođe, laičke sledbenike i na kraju učenike. Poštovanje i divljenje prema njemu među bengalskom elitom doveli su do toga da je njegov glavni sledbenik Svami Vivekananda osnovao Ramakrišna mat, koji pruža duhovno usavršavanje monaha i poklonika, i misiju Ramakrišna radi pružanja dobrotvornog rada i obrazovanja.
