What is your vision of a world that works for everyone?<\/span><\/strong>
\n A place where everyone respects everyone else with emphasis focused on human beings and not systems and processes to simply amass a fortune in material goods. Where the values are based on principles and not greed. A place where all men are brothers and all women sisters. A place where creative thinking is valued as part of the culture. A place where no one goes hungry or unclothed or without shelter and access to information.<\/span><\/p>\n

What do you see as the most pressing problems facing the world today?<\/span><\/strong>
\n Appreciation of Religion and Spirituality and the deeper understanding of the difference between Tolerance and Acceptance<\/span><\/p>\n

How do you feel these problems could best be solved?<\/span><\/strong>
\n All religions began as a philosophy espoused by one of the Great Masters. I believe there have been many such Masters throughout history, Jesus, Gautama (Buddha) and Mohammed being the three foremost among them<\/span><\/p>\n

What I believed happened is that men took these philosophies, applied lateral thinking to them in order to establish organizations that would spread the teachings and, at the same time, provide a medium of control.<\/span><\/p>\n

Spirituality, on the other hand, is totally inclusive. Whereas a religion may espouse tolerance, there is actually very little evidence of it when it comes to dealing with people who are not willing to accept all tenets of their particular belief system. Spirituality is not about tolerance. Tolerance means I accept you in spite of our differences. Spirituality is about acceptance. I accept you because of our differences. There is a huge difference. Spirituality embraces differences and diversity, seeing the value of including other people’s perceptions in order that we may learn from each other’s knowledge and experiences, whereas religion seeks to eradicate difference and diversity. Linear thinking always leads to eventual and inevitable conflict, whereas spirituality, being non- linear, eliminates the need for conflict.<\/span><\/p>\n
