Andrew Harvey was born in South India in 1952 and lived there until he was nine years old, a period he credits with shaping his vision of the inner unity of all religions. He left India to attend private school in England, and entered Oxford University in 1970 to study history on a scholarship. At the age of 21, he became the youngest person ever to be awarded the Fellow of All Souls College, England’s highest academic honor.
Andrew Harvey is the author of The Way of Passion : A Celebration of Rumi and The Teachings of Rumi, among others.
I have featured him on the Rumi resource page of my website which features the CD Secret Language: Rumi a Celebration in Song.
