Bede Griffiths Reflects on His Life - An Oral History.
An extraordinary journey in search of truth . . .
This informal yet intimate self-portrait chronicles the life and beliefs of Bede Griffiths, regarded by many as one of the greatest mystics of this century.
His spiritual quest for "the other half of my soul" led Bede from the civility of an English Anglican middle-class family and Oxford education before the first World War into the Catholic Church and Benedictine Order and, ultimately, into a world of mysticism and heart-centeredness in an ashram in the lush jungles of southern India. The vision of this profound thinker and pioneer in East-West understanding will have a lasting influence on the world's religious stage.
