Chris J. Hawkyard


Dr. Chavan of the Indian Institute of Technology brings with him a colleague of his from Birmingham University, Mr. Chris Hawkyard, for Shri Nathji’s darshan during the first week of January 1985. Shri Nathji’s divine light is so powerful on that day and his oratory in English so stunning that Chris Hawkyard, a Christian, is moved to say to Shri Nathji:
“You have broken all the windows!”–meaning thereby that Shri Nathji had revealed everything.
He also said:
“I had a wonderful feeling of Peace come over me as I sat in your presence.”
Chris J. Hawkyard is an honors chemistry graduate from Durham University in the United Kingdom. He worked nearly 12 years in the textile industry, mainly for Courtaulds Ltd.
