The Ghandi Legacy lives on

My classmates and I had the priviledge to have an audience with Arun Ghandi this morning. Arun is the grand-son of Mohandas (aka the Mahatma) and he is continuing his Grandfather's legacy of the Interfaith message.

He rightly believes that only through full appreciation and understanding of each other's religious and spiritual beliefs can we begin to heal the scars of intolerence and violence that continue to plague humanity.

My favorite admission from Arun: he thought Unity was some kind of interfaith denomination where he would find aspects of all faiths. He was disappointed to learn we were just another Christian interpretation. He urged us to live up to our name. :)

Healing & Peace through Understanding.

An aspiration for us all.
