Excerpt from Keshub Chunder Sen's Lectures in India
So sublime; so marvellous is this idea of the Trinity that the most gifted divine and the most learned sage in utter amazement exclaim, - "What manner of doctrine is this - the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost - Three in One, One in Three!" Verily the Trinity is a precious jewel-box. Fain would I draw out of it that valued necklace which the Lord hath reserved for India, that she may put it on, and appear as a beautiful "bride adorned for her husband," when the time of her redemption draweth nigh. But my conscious unworthiness arrests my eager arm, and I stand back in recoil. These mortal lips, black as sin, dare not touch a theme so sacred. Its vastness overpowers me. Before its height and depth my feeble intellect sinks. Shall I then dismiss the heavenly theme before me? A voice within seems to say, - Proceed. For why should I forbear and hesitate when I profess neither scholarship nor research? I have an apology for my presumption which, I am sure, will commend itself to you. I am not going to discuss or criticize the recondite philosophy of the many schools of divinity in the West. Learning and metaphysics I bring not to the subject before me, but only the simplicity of, faith and trust.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into a profound exploration of the Trinity, a concept central to Christian theology. The author, drawing upon their unique perspective as an Asiatic seeker of truth, presents a fresh and illuminating interpretation of this age-old mystery. Rooted in the author's personal faith and experiences, the book transcends the boundaries of traditional Western theological discourse, offering insights gleaned from the "Trinity School of Asia." It argues that the Trinity is not merely a Western concept but rather a universal truth deeply embedded within Eastern spiritual traditions, including Hinduism. Through vivid imagery and evocative language, the author explores the interconnectedness of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, shedding light on their roles in creation, salvation, and the ultimate redemption of humanity. The book emphasizes the significance of Christ as the Logos, the divine Word that bridges the gap between humanity and the divine. Ultimately, this book invites readers of all backgrounds to embrace a broader understanding of the Trinity, one that transcends cultural and religious divides and reveals the unifying power of divine love.
