Riassunto:

Bede Griffiths is an exceptional figure, as good a candidate for sainthood as one could hope to find outside the orthodoxy of institutional religion. This candid and lucid autobiography covers Bede's early years, up to the time when he became accepted as a Dominican monk but before he went to India. It charts his emotional and intellectual journey from the Church of England to Catholicism and inspires by virtue of the earnest sincerity that shines from every word he writes. It is not often that you hear of people engaging with the likes of Spinoza and Plato as if they were genuine bearers of signposts to understanding the world. Bede Griffiths does engage with these giants in such a way and students of philosophy should take note.
