Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Journey Beyond Measure is a biography of an ordinary man who lived an extraordinary life. A simple but beautifully written memoir, the narrative takes you down memory lane with Virkat, a partition survivor and a refugee. Virkat lived through arguably the most challenging, unforgettable and heart-breaking period in India. He endured great suffering, faced life-threatening situations, saw hate rising all around him, but also experienced times of blissful joy and met people who gave him unconditional support and love. The book is a must-read for a reader of any age and inclination. It focuses on a wide range of social issues that remain relevant to our times, such as education, interfaith relationships, the meaning of God, and the refugee crisis. The reader will particularly enjoy the historical background and the cultural and political climate of India before and after 1947, which are intimately woven into Virkat’s life.
