The Journey Home | An American Boy Who Turned Into Swami | Radhanath Swami | Book Summary | Hindi |

The Journey Home is a generational classic. It portrays an American teenager’s search for meaning and fulfillment in the turbulent world we live in. This is a spellbinding autobiographical narrative, permeated with the devotion and determination of Richard Slavin (aka Radhanath Swami) as he embarks on a courageous journey in search of the ultimate truths of life.
He travels across Europe, the Middle East, and into the mystical world of India. It’s a tale of adventure, humor, and love. I recommend The Journey Home as a must-read for seekers of all sorts.
This wonderful book shows how purity of heart can overcome all obstacles on the Spiritual Path. It sings to us of holding on to our dream of Real Love until it becomes Reality.
He presently travels in Asia, Europe, and America teaching devotional wisdom, but can often be found with his community in Mumbai.
People who know Radhanath Swami speak of his dedication to bringing others closer to God. Almost in the same breath they speak of his lightness, simplicity, and sense of humor. Visitors and friends are inspired by his unassuming nature and natural unwillingness to take credit for the works he inspires-developing communities, massive food distribution to indigent children, missionary hospitals, eco-friendly farms, schools, ashrams, and emergency relief programs. “He seems to see life as a continuous blessing of God’s grace,” one admirer said, “and yet he never loses his humanness. His accessibility leaves people feeling that with a little sincere effort, they too will find the path to inner peace and God realization.”
