“Chasing A Blazing Fire In The Himalayas: A Brief Sketch Of The (Un)-Noticed Kalimpong Pentecostal Revival” is a study about the Pentecostal revival that took place in the Eastern Himalayas before India’s independence.

This work is an attempt to declassify the historical linkages of Church establishment in the Eastern Himalayas with the local supports.

The Kalimpong Pentecostal Revival has witnessed remarkable events, as compared to many revival movements in the world.

History shows Christianity rapidly increased in Kalimpong among the Lepcha, Bhutia, and Nepali communities with this revival movement in the hills.

The fire of the Holy Spirit also spread to its peripheries Darjeeling, Sikkim, and Nepal kingdom, yet unnoticed in the wider media coverage and in both popular and academic writings.

Thus, this book encourages researchers, academicians, as well as people from non-academic backgrounds to understand their past.
