This book tells the remarkable story of Sadhu Sundar Singh, a Sikh man who embraced Christianity and became a wandering ascetic, a “sadhu,” in early 20th century India. The author, who knew Sundar Singh personally, explores the young man’s journey from a life of privilege to one of profound self-denial, tracing his quest for spiritual peace, his conversion experience, and the persecution he faced from his own family and community. The book delves into the complex religious landscape of India, contrasting the rigorous practices of Hindu asceticism with the transformative power of Christian faith as Sundar Singh experienced it. Through his personal story, the book reveals the profound impact that the ideal of renunciation, deeply ingrained in Indian culture, can have on those who seek a deeper spiritual path. Ultimately, this book offers a glimpse into the life of a man who chose to dedicate his life to serving others, demonstrating the power of faith to transcend cultural barriers and bring hope and peace to a world often consumed by conflict.
