Publisher's Synopsis
"I believe Wendell's story will encourage and inspire every reader to understand just how good and faithful God is, particularly to those who are looking for a deeper understanding of Him and His purpose for their lives" -From the Foreword by JOEL OSTEEN .... In the fall of 1973 a young Hollywood actor leaves behind his career and celebrity, embarking on a spiritual quest to the exotic, beautiful and seductive land of India, journal in hand. The trip is a culmination of three years of intense self-examination and spiritual exploration that has taken him through a maze of religions and new age sects. His goal is simple. He seeks what the Hindus call "Anubhava" or "truth, directly experienced." He travels the sub-continent from one end to the other with his mentor and another dozen or so fellow seekers, encountering along the way many famous and not-so-famous mystics, swamis, and gurus. And, oddly enough, he frequently runs into Christians who witness to him about Jesus. Although unappreciative of their intrusions, he is nevertheless reminded of his childhood faith and begins reading a Gideon Bible to find out more about Jesus. His original quest, a direct experience of God's truth, becomes fulfilled in an unexpected and beautifully simple way that is sure to inspire every seeker who reads his story.
