nearly all of these good and godly authors laboured under the decided disadvantage of not being able to converse with someone who knew sundar singh firsthand . while this book makes no claims to scholarship , it fills that gap , revealing sundar singh as a very human personality and as a young man saw him . that young man was my dad , who bore indelibly in his life , many marks of those precious lessons in christlikeness , which he learned from sadhu sundar singh .
the life of sadhu sundar singh was most remarkable in it ' s christ - likeness . he was born amidst the depths of indian culture and religion , and into a sikh family . during the early part of his life sundar ' s mother would take him week by week to sit at the feet of a sadhu , an ascetic holy man , who lived some distance away in the rainforest .

this signaled the beginning of a new life for sundar singh – a life of servitude paved with great suffering and hardship .
my late dad himself was given an interview with sundar singh . sensing that this young disciple was no mere eccentric moved by idle curiosity , sundar singh invited him to stay and eat with him in the next place to which he was going . thus he accompanied sundar singh and lived with him for a while , though he very firmly and politely declined the invitation to dine with him , simply because he felt that he was not worthy to sit at the same table with sundar singh .
hi all , sadhu sunder singh is my ideal personality . i love to read about his life . impressive messages about christian life . this book is really beautiful and blessing of god .
the contribution of sundar singh’s life is phenomenal considering the fact that he founded no work , established no order or was he of any political significance . [ 31 ] the sadhu was not technically a theologian but his writings and sayings were full of indian theology . [ 32 ] sundar singh was deeply convinced that christianity will make its entrance into indian hearts only when it is presented in indian form . he serves as an indigenous ideal to the indian church through his life as a sadhu . [ 33 ] the methods adopted by sundar singh provide the framework for an indian to express his christian commitment within his culture . [ 34 ] his teaching method was through parables drawing examples from every day life . [ 35 ] sundar singh never attempted for syncretism but was emphatic on the uniqueness of christ . thus , sundar singh challenges the indian church today to take indegenisation seriously .
sundar singh may have influenced c . s . lewis in several ways . for example , the name singh comes from the sanskrit word for lion . because sundar singh was popularly perceived as the most christ - like man in lewis ' s day , it is possible that sundar singh was in the back of lewis ' s mind when aslan the lion came bounding into lewis ' s first story of narnia . ( aslan is the turkish word for lion . )

sundar singh ' s correspondence with the swedish lutheran bishop nathan soderblom in november 1928 further confirms that he claimed visionary contact with swedenborg .
in march 1929 , sundar singh was visited in subathu by a . j . appasamy . he reported on their meeting as follows :
some in europe , who had seen sundar singh while they were very young , spoke to the present writer of the unforgettable experience .
to check my conviction that c . s . lewis ' s sura was really meant to represent sadhu sundar singh , in 1987 i contacted lewis ' s oxford pupil and lifetime friend dom bede griffiths , since 1955 a benedictine monk in india . i explained my theory and asked him what he thought . ( griffiths , like sundar singh , wore the traditional robe of an indian holy man . )
the life of sundar singh 1889 – born at rampur , punjab 1903 – conversion 1904 – cast out from home 1905 – baptised in simla ; begins life as a sadhu 1907 – works in leprosy hospital at sabathu 1908 – first visit to tibet 1909 – enters divinity college , lahore , to train for the ministry 1911 – hands back his preacher’s license ; returns to the sadhu’s life 1912 – tours through north india and the buddhist states of the himalayas 1918 to 1922 – travels worldwide 1923 – turned back from tibet 1925 to 1927 – quietly spends time writing 1927 – sets out for tibet but returns due to illness 1929 – attempts to reach tibet and disappears soon after sundar “met” jesus christ in 1904 , he was baptized in 1905 , and four years later in 1909 - 10 , he spent a whole year at st . john’s divinity college in lahore . soon thereafter he opted to lead the life of a sadhu ( a wandering ascetic ) rather than a licensed preacher ; thus becoming sadhu sundar singh . in the eyes of the church leaders , sadhu’s name and example is an avenue to promote christianity especially among the sikhs with a calculated hope that the sikhs will follow through . lately , it has come to my attention that rampur village in punjab where sundar was born now “hosts several christian cells planted by india - based missions . ” also recently opened is the “sadhu sundar singh memorial church” in doraha , a town near rampur . the church of north india has also constructed a “sadhu sundar singh memorial church” in faridkot , about 24 miles from the pakistan border .
what did lewis mean by the term sura ? in sanscrit the word means god . in the hindu pantheon , a sura is a good angel or genie . in arabic a sura is one of the 114 chapters of the koran . lewis must have known all this when he chose the word . i believe that lewis used the word sura because he was hinting at the word sadhu , which means a holy man in india . ( as an adjective in sanscrit , sadhu means straight . ) if lewis had actually called his christian mystic the sadhu , some readers might have believed that his tale was a true account about the famous sadhu sundar singh .
singh , sundar . with and without christ . introduction by the lord bishop of winchester . harper & brothers , new york , 1929 .
sundar singh had been a christian universalist ; he believed that all people would , eventually , attain salvation . writing in 1925 he argued :
however , sundar singh received a vision of christ that ultimately changed the course of his life . after surrendering his life to christ , he devoted himself to the sharing of the gospel . upon discovering sundar singh’s conversion , his father denounced and expelled his son from the family .
now this was the question which haunted my dad in his early teen - age years . in sundar singh god provided a meaningful answer .
meeting sundar singh or hearing him speak of jesus , made the whole gospel narrative come alive in a striking and incontrovertible manner to many in several parts of the globe . my dad and others known to me were amongst those who were deeply influenced by sundar singh ' s life .
in 1922 a young indian research student , a . j . appasamy and the noted theologian and new testament scholar b . h . streeter published the sadhu , a study in mysticism and practical religion , in which the visionary aspect of sundar singh ' s life was first brought out into the open . it was also in this book that the name of emanuel swedenborg was first mentioned in connection with sundar singh .
in 1905 , sundar singh was baptised into the church of india and shortly afterwards took the vow of a sadhu , giving away his possessions and , owning only a saffron robe , a shawl and a copy of the new testament , adopted the life of a wandering preacher .

on seeing the fabulous wealth which was offered to him , young sundar singh exclaimed ,
all this gold cannot give me the peace which the lord jesus christ has given me .
the unshakable determination of sundar singh to follow jesus , only made his father more desperate and angry .
was sadhu a sikh ? not once sadhu called himself a former sikh . not once sadhu mentioned sikh doctrines let alone forsaking them . in his writings only at one place he referred that he was “born in a family that was commonly considered sikh . ” but then qualified it : that for his family “the teaching of hinduism was considered most essential . ” this was written in his book , “with and without christ” published in 1928 , merely a year before sadhu’s own death . frankly i am puzzled at all of this . how could his family be sikh but practices diehard hinduism ? why would he wait for so long to reveal his family links as sikh ? have sadhu and his church cohorts being putting up a smoke screen here— - killing two birds with one stone so to speak ? why ? was sadhu as a christian with an attached sikh name , leading an ascetic hindu way of life , a ticket too attractive for the evangelical church ? history texts tell us that sadhu’s mother was really the genius behind to plant ideas in his mind of leading a life of a wandering hermit . for someone to be that important in sundar’s upbringing without being named anywhere in the literature is mind - boggling ! his mother had hired the services of a hindu pundit and an old “sikh sadhu” to teach sundar . sadhu sundar singh in his book , “with and without christ” has devoted more than one page under the heading “the sadhu and i” explaining his quandary over the questions with this supposedly “sikh sadhu . ” reading this questionable page , i realized that there is not a single word mentioned giving me any hint that sundar was talking of the sikh religion . moreover how could “sikh sadhu” be a sikh ? something doesn’t make sense . keep in mind , sadhu had three elder siblings born from the same un - named mother . it is apparent from the literature that this mother didn’t impart hinduism to any of her first three children . if so why would she pick sunder , her youngest child , for this special exotic religious training ? again these detail questionings with no apparent answers doesn’t make sense . i cannot help but reach a conclusion : sadhu was not a sikh and had no links with the sikh religion in any fashion whatsoever . this only further deepens the mystery on sundar . who was he then ?
we are just finishing our book group using the
wisdom of the sadhu , teachings of sundar singh
. the discussions have been amazing ! this is a must read book for all of those folks who are exploring their faith . we keep adding weeks to the . . .
there might as well be more of these jesus and other testimonies given out by sundar just like this one : “i am christ whom you are persecuting . there is salvation only through me . if you believe me now , you will be saved . if you don’t believe me you will be damned forever . ” what transpired on this faithful day cannot be verified . sundar is the sole witness . one is never sure what jesus actually spoke . sundar is the only person who is narrating his own supernatural incident . and unfortunately , with so many inconsistencies and profound contradictions inherent in the above - mentioned witness accounts , one has to ask : is sadhu reliable ? my answer is no . what is sadhu up to ? is he lying and why ? sadhu’s psychological make up is prone to seeing visions which is fraught with many pitfalls . in one of the above accounts sadhu has mentioned the date december 18th without giving the year . c . f . andrews , who had known sadhu personally , mentioned the time “december 1903” for this incident . cyril j . davey , a christian biographer for sadhu has given the date “december 3 , 1903 . ” which one is correct ? it’s high time to ask : would the real sadhu sundar singh please stand up and tell the truth about him for jesus’s sake ?
in october 1906 , he set out on his voyage as another christian , wearing a turban and the yellow robe of a hindu sadhu , a plain gave to profound practice . singh saw himself as a sadhu , yet one inside of christianity instead of hinduism , on the grounds that he understood christianity couldn’t infiltrate india unless it was in an indian way .
kunick and marx received sundar singh and taught him some elements of the tibetan language and even gave him an interpreter to help him in his work .
on october 6 , exactly after 33 days of his baptism , sundar singh began his life as a christian sadhu . [ 6 ] he always had that aspiration in life which was instilled in him by his spiritual mother . he was distressed to see the indian church inculcating western culture and imitating their customs and failing to present the gospel in indian terms . sundar singh knew that a life of a sadhu was the best way to present the gospel message of christ to indians . his yellow robe won him admission into many villages and people listened to his messages earnestly . unlike the old hindu sadhus who were dirty and smeared themselves with ashes , sundar singh was clean , tall and well built and just sixteen years old . [ 7 ]
thank you so much for publishing this wonderful book of the life and teachings of the sadhu , sundar singh , devout and faithful follower of the lord jesus christ . years ago a pastor gave me an old book about the sadhu but it was written in italian so i was so glad to find something in english . after reading this book i went ahead and orderd more copies to share with my friends in canada and united states !
known in his lifetime as india’s most famous convert to christianity , sadhu sundar singh ( 1889–1929 ) would not approve of that characterization . he loved jesus and devoted his life to knowing him and following him , but he never accepted christianity’s cultural conventions , even as he embraced its stark original teachings .
in the mid 1940s bishop dr . augustine peters , a local evangelist of south india , searched out sundar’s sibling rajender singh , drove him to the christian confidence and sanctified through water him in punjab . rajender alluded to numerous supernatural occurrences performed by sundar singh and individuals changed over to christ under his service .
possessed of a burning heart , he was aflame to tell all whom he could reach , of the love of god in christ jesus . the image of an ill - kept figure , robed in filthy garments , trudging along the dusty indian road is the kind of picture that the thought of a ' sadhu ' conjures before one ' s mind . sundar singh was distinctly different . his person and attire at all times were clean . my father , during his sojourn with him , was not a little surprised at how clean sundar singh managed to keep himself and his sadhu ' s yellow robe .
sadhu sundar singh was born on 3 rd september , 1889 in a rich sikh family in punjab . [ 1 ] his mother was a very pious woman who had a strong influence in his life . her prayer was that her youngest son sundar should renounce the world and become a sadhu or saint . she nurtured sundar singh in the sikh and hindu scriptures . her death when sundar was only fourteen years dealt a severe blow on him . [ 2 ] he started desperately longing for peace because of a deep unrest in his heart and began reading all religious books and even practised yoga . his father put him in a christian mission school in his village where sundar developed a profound hatred for christians . he went to the extent of tearing the bible and burning it into pieces and was admonished by his father .
in october 1906 , he set out walking a road , wearing a yellow robe and turban . the yellow robe designated the
uniform
of a hindu sadhu , traditionally an ascetic devoted to the gods , who either begged his way along the roads or sat , silent , remote , and often filthy , meditating in the jungle or some lonely place . the young sundar singh had also chosen the sadhu ' s way , as a christian .
god granted sundar singh also to see a great personal victory in the conversion of his dear dad who had initially suffered much pain and embarrassment at sundar ' s conversion to christ . his dad approached him saying ,
i want to be baptized by you .
but sundar singh said ,
no , you must be ready to be baptized in the name of jesus christ by any true christian preacher .
what a joy it was to sundar singh to see the triumph of the gospel in his own father ' s life !
the life of a sadhu was a chosen life of self denial , suffering and cross bearing . brought up in luxury in a rich family , sundar singh as a sadhu wandered barefooted , without any possessions except his thin linen garment , a blanket and a new testament in urdu . sundar singh preached the gospel in his native and surrounding villages and he wandered through punjab to afghanistan and kashmir , lands where christian mission work had hardly begun . [ 8 ] at this time , sundar singh met with mr . stokes , a wealthy american who came to india for missionary work and joined with him for some time in ministry . he learnt from him the ideals of st . francis of assisi and his life as a preaching friar inspired him . [ 9 ]
from here on the life of sundar singh became most christ - like . being unwilling to denounce his master , it was not long before his family had rejected him . sundar took the saffron robes of the sadhu and began a life of spreading the simple message of love and peace and rebirth through jesus . he carried no money or other possessions , only a new testament .
because many of them discuss the sons of light and the sons of darkness . this is the exact same term used in sadhu ' s book .
india , the country that gave birth to great religions – hinduism , buddhism , jainism and sikhism – continues to be a fertile ground for those seeking spiritual sustenance , a meaning to life , in general . the image of the sadhu in his orange robes is a common sight . and it was this very image that i encountered the other day that brought to mind the life and times of the indian christian ascetic – sadhu sundar singh 1889 - 1929 .
at the young age of fifteen , sundar singh received a vision of christ and converted from his native hinduism to christianity . after his conversion , he became a sadhu - - an ascetic or holy man - - and for the next twenty - five years , until his death , he preached the gospel . at the master ' s feet is a remarkable collection of sundar singh ' s visions from god , organized in a dialogue between the
disciple
( sundar singh ) and the
master
( god ) . he includes in this uncomplicated dialogue profound teachings revealed to him from god . these teachings focus on the important practical aspects of christianity - - sin , salvation , prayer , service , etc . - - rather than obscure or arcane theological discussions . truly inspirational , at the master ' s feet reflects the depth of sadhu sundar singh ' s dedication , and can encourage such dedication in all of its readers .
sundar singh had been born into an important landowning sikh family in patiala state in northern india . sikhs , rejecting hindu polytheism and muslim intolerance in the sixteenth century , had become a vigorous nation with a religion of their own . sundar singh ' s mother took him weekly to sit at the feet of a sadhu , an ascetic holy man , who lived in the jungle some miles away . she also sent him to a christian mission school where he could learn english .
wisdom of the sadhu , a collection of anecdotes , sayings , parables , and meditations , brings together the best of sundar singh’s teachings . couched as they are in a distinctly indian idiom , they probe the essence of the gospels with unusual freshness and offer insights of great depth and value to every serious seeker .
george macdonald died on september 18 , 1905 . just then the young sundar singh decided to become a wandering sadhu , and less than three weeks after macdonald ' s death he set out on his twenty - fouryear ministry . when sundar singh died in the spring of 1929 , c . s . lewis dedicated his life to god and gradually began his own remarkable ministry . all three of these men ministered by public speaking , by writing , and by deep and constant prayer .
> from here on the life of sundar singh became most christ - like . being unwilling to denounce his master , it was not long before he had been rejected by his family . sundar took the saffron robes of the sadhu and began a life of spreading the simple message of love and peace and rebirth through jesus . he carried no money or other possessions , only a new testament .
when in the spring of 1920 an oxford don and his young indian tutee conceived the idea of writing a book about sadhu sundar singh , it was in their minds to interpret him to the west in terms that the west could grasp and according to a scale of values that the west could affirm . [ 10 ]
sundar singh fell down before jesus and worshipped him . peace and joy finally flooded his soul . at breakfast he told his bewildered father ,
the old sundar singh is dead ; i am a new being .
7 his conversion was obviously much like that of the apostle paul , and he told everyone who would listen .

sundar singh ' s serene and glowing countenance with its beautifully chiselled features made many people think that he closely resembled the lord jesus , even in his external appearance .
i don ' t suppose that anyone has made the link between lewis and sundar singh before ,
bede griffiths continued in another letter on july 27 , 1987 .
on reflection i feel that it is very likely that lewis heard of him through the cowley fathers with whom he was very close . in any case , sundar singh needs to be more widely known .
17 ( the cowley fathers were the devout anglicans who had hosted sundar singh during his 1920 visit to oxford . )
when parting with young daniel , sundar singh gifted to him his shawl , saying that he was giving it to him as a token of his love . the biblical parallel of the prophet elijah ' s mantle falling on young elisha being unmistakable , many said in fun ,
the mantle of sundar singh has fallen on daniel .
as he trudged along a lonely road in an area particularly notorious for bandits , sundar singh was suddenly accosted one day by a bandit accustomed to summarily killing travellers and seizing and plundering their valuables . when sundar singh met this cruel man who blocked his path with an upraised sword , he meekly put down his head and expected the sword to fall at any moment . but , to his surprise , the man lowered his sword and his manner changed completely ! he could not believe that a man who was strong and tall like sundar singh would so meekly submit . wondering at the words of sundar singh he led him to a cave . the bandit took him into the interior of the cave . there in the nether part , sundar singh saw the skeletons of men who had been killed by him . the bandit exclaimed ,
all these men have i killed ! will god forgive me ?
there sundar singh proclaimed to this desperate and wicked man the forgiveness which the lord jesus offers to sinners .
sadhu sundar singh is one of the most fascinating and enigmatic spiritual guides of the twentieth century . rooted as it is in a distinctively indian style , his christian wisdom challenges western readers to step beyond theological ideas and taste the gospel itself . plough has done a great service by publishing the work of this wise and holy teacher .
{ { cite news urltoken | title = sadhu sundar singh . | newspaper = [ [ the sydney morning herald ] ] | issue = 25 , 777 | location = new south wales , australia | date = 17 august 1920 | accessdate = 10 july 2018 | page = 6 | via = national library of australia } }
was sadhu a hindu ? on a number of occasions sadhu had described himself as a former hindu , and more than once mentioned of his hindu heritage by pointing out doctrines that are without question of hindu origin . sadhu made it clear , “christianity was fulfillment of hinduism . hinduism has been digging channels . christ is the water to flow through these channels … there are many beautiful things in hinduism ; but the fullest light is from christ . ” in 1922 while sadhu was journeying overseas , his expressed reservations about mahatma gandhi’s satyagraha tactics was published : “ [ sadhu ] made quite plain his profound disapproval of mr . gandhi’s method telling him in so many words that they can lead india to nothing but ruin and useless suffering . ” i learnt from gandhi’s reply that sadhu and gandhi had met more than once . according to gandhi , talking of sadhu , “we had the closet communion… . we had long discussions over all these and other matters and he certainly left on me the impression that for a religious man no course left open . ” was sadhu involved in politics with gandhi ? evidence suggests he was . being a genuine hindu that he was and rightly so with so much of the efforts invested by his mother why sundar failed to mention her name ? something is fishy here and i have developed suspicions that sadhu’s real history might be altogether different . could it be that sundar was a hindu boy raised by the missionaries and trained to carry out a double deception with respect to his allegedly hybrid “hindu - sikh model” as conduit to proselyte the masses who had grown resistant to the christ’s message ?
to meet christ was only the beginning for sundar singh . he was a sikh . sikhs had endured terrible persecutions in their early history . as a consequence they were fiercely loyal to their faith and to each other . conversion to christianity was considered treachery . now every effort was made to woo or coerce sundar singh back to his ancestral faith .
yet in the indian context that shaped sundar singh ' s christianity , all these aspects of exemplary christian religious life had strong parallels in indian traditions . the sadhu or
holy man
renounces worldly life in seeking ultimate
salvation .
in this way , sundar singh sought to demonstrate that christian faith and indian religious culture had much more in common than the christianity brought by foreign missionaries seemed to allow . indian christians understood and appreciated this , and by the 1920s , many european christians began to agree .
if true , sundar in 1896 c . e . knew by heart the bhagavad
from gujranwala in punjab . theoretically it is possible for sundar to have read and
sundar singh ' s zeal for the lord jesus and his practice of christian discipleship comes as a rebuke to the soft , over - cuddled , comfortable christian believer of today .
there were too many who were drawn by mere enthusiasm or curiosity and by the renown of sundar singh , to peer closely at him or to seek interviews with him . sundar singh needed privacy and guarded it very carefully . he preferred not to speak more than twice a day , and used his time for long periods of prayer and communion with god .
sadhu sundar singh came down to madras in 1918 intending to visit a few places . [ 15 ] by this time , his fame had spread far and wide and he was flooded with offers to preach all over south india . thousands of people flocked for his meetings with a keen desire to hear sundar singh . conventions were conducted in travancore where he was invited as a speaker . sundar singh went on to ceylon and conducted spiritual meetings of great power for six weeks . [ 16 ] he was greatly disturbed by the caste system prevailing in these regions and condemned them severely . his ministry to the eastern nations extended to burma , malaya , penang , singapore , china and japan . [ 17 ]
sadhu sundar singh was an indian christian missionary . he once said : “those who determine not to put self to death will never see the will of god fulfilled in their lives . those who ought to become the light of the world must necessarily burn and become less and less . by denying self , we are able to win others . ”
several biographies have been written about sundar singh which emphasize his piety , humility and christian witness . eric sharpe surveyed the biographical studies of sundar singh and discerned a number of significant discrepancies in chronological details , in the accounts of his christian conversion , and the accounts of his travels to tibet . sharpe indicates that writers in continental europe , england and the united states of america constructed different portraits of sundar singh . he argues that the different portraits disclose much about the way westerners thought about india in the 1920s and 1930s . sharpe remarks :
sadhu’s mental health : thanks to c . f . andrews for bringing to my notice that early on , sundar’s father and his uncle regarded sundar as mad . this was based upon the facts they possessed in their hands . his siblings kept themselves away and it seems because of sundar’s eccentric behaviors , he was rendered aloof . after sundar had adopted christianity he was let go and his family connections were cut off . sadhu , being a famous evangelist , was on a ride which he would have never imagined had he not left rampur village . if sadhu indeed had suffered from some psychiatric disorder , i suppose it might have been pointed out in his missionary journeys worldwide at least somewhere within the christian circles . come to think of–it did . here are some of their views : 1 . father hosten , a jesuit at darjeeling , writing in the catholic herald of india ( 1923 - 1925 ) elaborated his impressions that the sadhu was a “shameless imposter , who has invented the greater part of his life - story in order to win the reputation of sanctity . ” 2 . german jesuits published a series of accusations in a paper entitled stimmen der zeit ( 1924 - 1926 ) calling sadhu an “oriental deceiver , a childish visionary , who confounds the creations of his fantasy with reality . ” 3 . father hosten and dr . o . pfister wrote a book titled , the legend of sundar singh ( berne , 1926 ) . pfister regarded sadhu as a “neurotic person whose sense of reality has been impaired , and who therefore tends , although unconscious that he is doing so , to misrepresent historical facts . ” pfister also believed to have discovered other morbid traits , such as sadism , in the sadhu’s psycho - physical life . from the point of view of a psychoanalyst , pfister believed that sadhu’s love to christ was “rooted in repressed infantile sex - complexes . ”
sadhu sundar singh ( 1889 - 1929 ) was known in his lifetime as india ' s most famous convert to christianity . in the hindu tradition , a sadhu ( literally ,
one who is on the right path
) is a holy man , saint or seer , one who has renounced the world for the sake of the path which leads to enlightenment . however , it could be said he rejected the western forms of christianity and instead adapted christ ' s words to india ' s unique culture and environment .
really an inspiring disciple of christ of the 21st centuary . the way jesus might have revealed to him and showed his love love might have pulled sadhu that he was called as christ where ever he goes . . . glory to jesus that he ( jesus ) has raised such people trained like him , to live for him . . . i praise god for rasing sadhu . . . . ! and spreading the gospel . . . sadhu proved jesus is in him and glorified jesus too . . . !

now that his short stint of eight months at theological school was finished , sundar singh plunged again into the glorious mission of making christ known to all who would hear . it was in july 1910 that sundar singh secured his release from the seminary . his stay there however left some changes in lives , which would last long after he himself ceased from his labours .
such praise and adulation , however , were only faint echoes of the devotion sundar singh had inspired in india , where he had wandered robed in the style of a sadhu ( ascetic
holy man
) preaching christ for 15 years . his indian admirers proclaimed
how like christ he is !
wherever he went . this likeness , they asserted , reflected a deep , mystical union :
it is no sin to call sundar singh ' swami ' [ i . e . , lord ] for christ himself dwells in him .

on one occasion , when sundar singh was suffering greatly amidst the cold , stricken by malaria , stokes , being greatly concerned , drew the shawl from sundar ' s face to see how he was . shivering and burning with fever as he was , sundar with a radiant face was heard saying ,
how sweet it is to suffer for jesus !
related material : the school of oriental and african studies also holds records of the conference of british missionary societies , international missionary council , including papers relating to sadhu sundar singh , 1929 - 1930s ( ref : cbms / h / pb6 / 71 / 46 , cbms / h / pb28 / 93 / 94 , cbms / h / pb52 / 117 ) .
his successor , sadhu sundar selvaraj , prophesied last april 2013 that earthquakes will occur in the philippines and that strong typhoon will hit leyte and samar . he also stated that people might kill each other for food , it will be talked to all . . .
now , this was the backdrop against which sundar singh began his missionary labours . the tradition of a young man clad in yellow robes who had renounced marriage and was therefore given the honorific ' sadhu ' , gave a person freedom of travel , as a prerequisite of his calling . moreover , a sadhu would be accepted in circles where a white - robed or black - robed christian priest or pastor would be turned away . the people had been taught by long tradition to reverence a person who had made the requisite sacrifices to become a sadhu . sundar singh , in donning a yellow robe , immediately made himself accessible to many common people . they felt they could communicate with a man in a yellow robe . there was much which they shared with him in common . there were occasions too when people were moved to the nth degree of rage and violent vituperation and disgust when they discovered that this sadhu was preaching christ , and not the gods or the ancient epics and vedas , whom alone they venerated . thus he was thrust out of villages when it was discovered that he was a christian . but without question , after all has been said , the sadhu ' s robe was a great help just to communicate and enter communities where no ordinary christian preacher could commonly go .
