Pandit Dharm Prakash Sharma
This great Brahmin, Pandit Dharm Prakash Sharma, the only son of the chief priest of Pushkar Teertha, Ajmer (Rajastan) came to know Lord Jesus Christ as his life, his Lord and his saviour by reading the “Sermon On The Mount” which was a part of his college curriculum and which also influenced Mahatma Gandhi, his mentor, tremendously. Panditji says “The desire of the vedic rishis from ages was a quest to seek the ultimate realization of the the true God and His grace. The same thirst of my heart was fired through the power of this great good news of the heavenly Father and brought me at the feet of the eternal God.” He had a brilliant career first as a well-known film star, then a prominent business executive and finally as a member of the Indian Parliament. Ten years after his knowing the living God and ten days before his death, the senior Pandit Sohan Lal, his father said to him “My son, for ten years I have watched your life change and the resulting peace. You are on the true path and have found the way. Your Lord is my Lord too.” His is a life of the quest of the living God ultimately finding fulfilment despite all manner of difficulties and opposition. It was through the spiritual strength of his wife Smt. Asha Ji, which guided him to a very intimate relationship with the Lord and experience the true meaning of fulfillment.
