About the Author

Dr Bhagat Singh Thind was born in the state of Punjab, India, in 1892 and educated at Klalsa college in Amritsar. His early teachers were the Sikh pundits of his community, especially his father, Sardar Boota Singh Thind, whose living example and spiritual teachings left an indelible blueprint to the knowledge of God, and whose legacy Dr Thind spent a lifetime fulfilling. He became inspired to visit the United States to fulfil his destiny as a spiritual teacher upon reading the works of Emerson, Whitman, and Thoreau.
