C.S. Lewis dedicated his autobiography
to him. The Dalai Lama credits him with "opening the hearts
and minds of mankind to gain understanding and acceptance of
all the major religions." Cardinal Hume called him "a
mystic in touch with absolute love and beauty."
Bede Griffiths is considered by many to be one of the greatest
religious leaders of the 20th Century whose influence is only
now beginning to emerge.
After leaving Oxford and becoming a Catholic and a Benedictine
monk, Bede Griffiths went to India "to recover the other
half of my soul." There he established an ashram where he
spent the remaining thirty?eight years of his life and where
pilgrims from all continents came for enlightenment in prayer
and meditation.
"His whole life and thought," says his principal biographer
Shirley du Boulay, "culminated in the knowledge that beyond
the opposites, beyond the darkness, was 'that Great Person, of
the brightness of the sun.' "
Here, in one volume, is the core of his teaching.
