L'auteur vu par l'éditeur
Born of Parsi Zarathushtrian parents, Phiroz Mehta was educated at Royal College, Colombo, and Trinity College, Cambridge, where he read Natural Sciences and History. Later he studied the piano under Solomon, giving recitals in India and Britain. He had many other interests; astronomy, poetry and philosophy. His interest since early boyhood in all the major religions of the world was not confined to a theoretical study. Deeply concerned with discovering through personal experience the Truth which is the Heart of Religion, he practised both the outer and the inner disciplines of several great religions.
During his lifetime he gave over three thousand lectures on religion and Indian culture to learned societies, university students, schools and conference centres in England, Holland, Germany, India and at his London home.
