Dr Raju Chandrasekar
Chancellor, Emeritus, Jinja, Uganda and Eminent Educationalist
Dr Jagannath Patnaik is genuinely a man of God. He has authored many magazines and newspaper articles. Above all is the witness of his simple, humble, prayerful life.
Dr Patnaaik could have become an eminent cleric in a prestigious order. But the Lord enticed his heart and led him through unbeaten paths. And all along he has been one of the great administrators in education and a master of spirituality. He is a man of ecumenical outlook, Gospel simplicity and have done great service to spread the realm of the knowledge of God.
He is indeed a man of God, a man of simplicity and humility. His approach has been personal, keeping to the tradition of the Indian sadhu. I appreciated very much your books and reflections. They helped me very much in my spiritual life. I am sure your messages and writings would move the people and help them in their spiritual growth. You have a gift for putting the words in a simple and attractive form. Congratulations for the number of books you have published. All the books speak of the loving God and not of the punishing God.
