Book Overview

Rabi R. Maharaj came from a long line of Brahmin priests and gurus and trained as a yogi. He meditated for many hours each day, but gradually disillusionment set in. He describes Hindu life and custom, vividly and honestly tracing his difficult search for meaning and his struggle to choose between Hinduism and Christianity. At a time when Eastern mysticism, religion, and philosophy fascinate many in the West, Maharaj offers fresh and important insights from the perspective of his own experience. "A unique revelation of the inward struggles of a Hindu and the ultimate triumph over death that he discovered. I found it challenging and inspiring. Must reading."--Hal Lindsey

A significant warning to naive Western World thinking regarding the "innocent" world of spirit. It is a first person, well written account by one who grew up to be a Guru within the highest caste. A real page-turner that is easy reading. I highly recommend this book.

A truly inspiring real life experience in search of Truth.

VIN and poojapatel, the reviewers before me, are living in a imaginary world, which only they both seem to practice. All my life, I have never yet seen a hindu reading vedas daily and living a life without idols and respecting cows. Maybe they both are hindus from Mars and not from my country India (that I love). Poojapatel has asked for hindu scriptures. The problem with that is that Hindus do NOT read scriptures like Christians...

if you are searching, this book *might* change your life

Last night I stayed up till 2:30 am. reading this book from cover to cover. I could not put it down.Rabi Maharaj's autobiography is tender and poignant, yet reads like a thriller. Rabi was born into a wealthy brahmin family in Trinidad. His father was a great yogi who never said a word to anyone, not even to his wife, during his penance for 8 years. Upon his untimely death, his young son resolves to become just like him -...

A good read

When I was at university some 30+ years ago this book was on the hot list of Christian books. Typically I did not read it. Since then I have read it twice - both times it was a good read. It is a mans personal experience - to me it shows the triumph of God's grace. If you are a Christian you will find it a good read, if you are a Hindu searching you will find it hope from the dead - but you will need to search just a little...

The true life story and spiritual journey of Rabi Maharaj.

I enjoyed this fast moving autobiography immensely . I must stress that this book is accurate. It is written by Rabi himself. I have talked with Mr. Maharaj on the phone and know people that have known him personally, this is his story and experience. Arvind-4@msn.com has commendable national pride in India and Hindu culture, Rabi's book is not about these topics. Perhaps Arvind would find to his surprise much more agreement...
