Imagine for a moment a world with tolerance, compassion and understanding of one another's faiths.
Hold that thought - that feeling.
That is what I am passionate about achieving - not just working towards but achieving...
...by taking a supposed source of conflict and turning it into a resource for peace and harmony, giving voice to the silent majority of peace loving people...
...multi-faith understanding - let it become a reality

Have you ever wondered what Buddhists believe? Does it fascinate you that so many non Buddhists practice meditation? Did you know that Allah's messengers included Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus and Muhammad? Do you know why Rastafarians wear the colours green, gold and red? |
Do you know what the difference is between all the denominations within Christianity? Do you understand why Christians "eat the body of Christ and drink his blood" at Communion? Did you know it is believed that the most famous Zoroastrians were the wise men who followed the star to Bethlehem and gave gifts to baby Jesus? |
What about Jainism? Did you know they consider the taking of life, no matter how small the creature or whether the deed was by accident that it will have a harmful effect on the individual's Karma? Do you understand why Jews believe there will be a second coming? Isn't it fascinating that the word "kosher" is widely used as meaning "ok"? |
