“Then you will know the truth, and the truth
will set you free.” (John 8:32)
Sadhu Sunder Singh was born in September
1889, in village Rampur near Ludhiana (Punjab). It was a rich household
of Jat Sikh family. As a Sikh, Sunder read scriptures of Hinduism.
He often visited Hindu temples in company of his parents. By the age
of seven, he had memorized Bhagavad-Gita. At sixteen, he had mastered
Vedas and other Hindu scriptures. He also read Koran, the sacred
book of Islam. He got acquainted with some Sadhus who taught
him Yoga. Sunder did not marry but devoted his life in the service of
Heavenly Father. He traveled all over world, wearing a yellow robe, lived
on food offered by people and had no permanent residence.
It was his mother who initially encouraged him to become a Sadhu.
She once told him, “Do not be selfish and materialistic but search for
eternal peace and truth, be a Sadhu. He practiced meditation and yoga
but never achieved inner peace.
He had his education in Christian Missionary School at Ludhiana.
There he had his exposure to Holy Bible. He wasn’t interested in Christianity
but turned to be anti-Christ. He believed that Jesus had taught
completely wrong faith. He used to tear Holy Bible apart and burn it.
During his school days he often enjoyed stoning Christian Missionaries
and encouraged others to join him in his nasty activities.
His mother died when he was 14 years old. It changed his life alto-
will set you free.” (John 8:32)
