Inhaltsangabe

"When I read the book, what struck me was the clarity of the exposition. Ideas about God, Man, and Nature which most of us find it difficult to convey even to people of trained intelligence, are here expressed in a way which would be readily comprehensible to the simplest minds. As such it cannot fail, I think, to find a welcome from a wide circle of readers." - B. H. STREETER Sadhu Sundar Singh was a renowned Indian Christian missionary and mystic known for his spiritual insights and writings related to Christianity and spirituality. In this book, he has put down some of the ideas and illustrations which are the outcome of his meditation on different topics such as love, faith and prayer. This new large print edition, designed to make reading comfortable, comes with an introduction by the Reverend. B. H. Streeter.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Sadhu Sundar Singh (1889-1929) was an Indian Christian missionary, spiritual teacher, and devotional writer whose life and work made him one of the most recognisable Christian figures from India in the early twentieth century. Born into a Sikh family in Punjab, he converted to Christianity as a young man and adopted the life and dress of a sadhu, or holy man, travelling widely through India, Tibet, Europe, and other regions as a preacher of Christ. His witness combined Christian faith with an Indian form of spiritual renunciation, giving his message a distinctive authority among readers interested in Christian discipleship, prayer, mysticism, missionary history, and global Christianity.Singh's writings are marked by simplicity, vivid illustration, and a strong inward emphasis on communion with Christ. In books such as At the Master's Feet, he presents spiritual truth through dialogue, parable, and devotional teaching rather than systematic argument. His work continues to appeal to readers of Christian devotional classics, Indian Christian spirituality, contemplative prayer, spiritual growth, and the deeper life tradition. Though his final disappearance in the Himalayas remains uncertain, his influence endured through his books, sermons, and the image of a Christian sadhu whose life embodied sacrifice, prayer, and direct dependence on God.Sadhu Sundar Singh (1889-1929) was an Indian Christian missionary, spiritual teacher, and devotional writer whose life and work made him one of the most recognisable Christian figures from India in the early twentieth century.
