The autobiography of Bede Griffiths. An astonishing book -- the story of one who, having drifted away from orthodox religion, after studies at Oxford under the guidance of C.S. Lewis, gradually rediscovered the meaning of Christianity and turned to the monastic life before moving to India in 1955 and founding an ashram where he lived until his death in 1993. His influence on modern Christian thought and its relationship to Asian religions has been perhaps more powerful than that of any other thinker of the 20th century. (192 pages)
