This book brings together Dr John Hislop’s informal talks to Sai devotees, delivered over more than twenty-five years. What stays with you is the quiet genuineness of his devotion. There is no attempt to impress, only an honesty of feeling that makes it easy to understand the closeness he shared with Bhagavan Sri Sathya Sai Baba.
In Seeking Divinity, Dr Hislop shares incidents from his own life and from the experiences of others, using them to shed light on Baba’s teachings in a simple, almost conversational manner. Nothing feels abstract or heavy. Many of these meetings took place in Sai centres across the USA, New Zealand, and Japan, and each meeting winds up with questions being taken up patiently and addressed with clarity for the benefit of all seekers.
Overall, this is a gentle, deeply comforting book. It reads less like a formal spiritual text and more like listening to a sincere devotee speak from the heart. There is a quiet beauty in its simplicity, and that is precisely what makes it so rewarding to read.
