About this title

Synopsis

Comparable in lasting significance to the classics, The Way of a Pilgrim and Brother Lawrence's The Practice of the Presence of God, this book is the extraordinary spiritual biography of a homeless monk's remarkable pilgrimage along the dusty roads of India--a pilgrimage taken with complete faith and constant remembrance of God.

Told with wit and humor, this inspiring narrative tells how the ever-humble Ramdas' pure love transformed many people who first mistreated him. In Quest of God is the first book in a trilogy chronicling Swami Ramdas' pilgrimage to God-realization. The next two books, In the Vision of God, vol. 1--The Continuing Saga of an Extraordinary Pilgrimage and In the Vision of God, vol.2--The Conclusion to the Saga of an Extraordinary Pilgrimage complete the series. Many readers find themselves in a lifelong love affair with this illuminating and transformational story.

About the Author

Swami Ramdas was born Vittal Rao, in Kerala, India in 1884. Before his renunciation, he was a householder whose domestic life suffered from bouts of unemployment. For relief from his outer circumstances, he began to chant a holy "Ram" (a name of God) mantra, which brought him great peace and joy. Afterwards, his detachment from the worldly life was quick; he began his pilgrimage and attained the vision of God. His later years were devoted to service and touring the world sharing a message of universal love and service
