Devoted to the Hindu scriptures and committed to his faith's rituals and practices, Rahil Patel was a model priest. He was a brilliant academic and a captivating speaker for one of the most affluent Hindu organisations in the world. With sincere, eloquent and persuasive preaching he promoted Hindu thought in political, social and economic arenas across Europe, North America and Russia. Politicians, industrialists and celebrities were among those who sought his spiritual counsel.
Yet for all his success, Rahil felt a hunger in his heart and a longing for peace.
Hoping to find a loving god who could meet these needs, Rahil intensified his meditations and his study of the Hindu scriptures. But nothing seemed to work - until he had an unexpected encounter with the risen Jesus Christ.
Finally he found the love he had been looking for. It was the beginning of a surprising journey in which he experienced both painful stripping away and inner healing, leading to a freedom he had never known.
