The Hindu experience is a constant search for God, a search to find out the ultimate truth and ultimate reality and to experience it in the depth of the heart: in this lucid and profound book, the author presents the Hindu tradition to Christians, asking them to encounter it and to relate it to the Christian experience of God.
God has spoken to us'in many and various ways', as the letter to the Hebrews says. In the Hindu tradition, in Hindu scriptures and in the Hindu way of life, there is a rich and developing revelation of the reality of God which Christians need to share if they are fully to understand the revelation of God in Christ.
To read this book is to make a journey of discovery: with the simplicity that can only come from long acquaintance and deep understanding, the author leads the reader through the Hindu scriptures to the Hindu understanding of the divine nature, of reality and of human existence. The book is enlivened by stories of his own encounters with wise and holy Hindus, and by his contemplation of the Hindu revelation in the light of the Christian revelation.
