easy to grasp

As a young man I walked through the aftermath of the massacre of Meerut, my skin stained with walnut juice and let not a single sight disturb the calm that carried me through crowds of rioting sepoys.

Hi, I couldn't make any sense of the sentence which seems, however, very easy to grasp. But what does it mean ' I let not a single sight to disturb the calm' and the narrator had been carried through by what? Thanks for any reply.
