Charan: A Remembrance

By David Christopher Lane

Charan: A Remembrance. David Christopher Lane retells his association with Charan Singh, the head of Radha Soami Satsang Beas from 1951 to 1990. A phone call before dawn. A vision no one could explain. A letter that arrived too late. What begins as grief becomes something far stranger. In this deeply personal and intellectually honest memoir, one man traces the improbable path that led him-from skepticism and scientific inquiry-to the doorstep of a spiritual master he could neither fully explain nor easily dismiss. This is not a story of blind devotion. It is a story of tension-between reason and revelation, doubt and longing, intellect and experience. From a California classroom to the crowded streets of India... From mystical visions to hard-edged philosophical critique... From youthful certainty to mature questioning... Charan: A Remembrance explores what happens when a rational mind encounters something it cannot quite reduce. And perhaps more unsettling- What happens when it doesn't want to. Because at the heart of this journey lies a question that refuses to go away: Was it coincidence... or something far more intimate?
