Dr Frank Kaufmann on Religion, Peace, Love, Understanding and Interfaith—Reprise

We caught up last week with one of our favorite quests, Dr. Frank Kaufmann. Frank is an amazing representative of the interfaith and peace movements and we were delighted to have him back on.  [Paula and Christilyn will continue "Prayer" next week while Andre is at the UAI Study Group Symposium.]

Is it possible to create peace and promote understanding between world faiths like Islam, Judaism and Christianity? If ever there was living proof that these lofty ideals are possible, Dr Frank Kaufmann provides it. Frank is the founder and president of Filial Projects, director of the Inter-Religious Federation for World Peace (IRFWP), editor-in-chief of Dialogue and Alliance, and editor-in-chief of The New World Encyclopedia where he has engaged 500 international scholars. He has done extraordinary peacemaking work in more than 65 countries, including many conflict-ridden and violent environments like Israel, Egypt and Palestine, Croatian Refugee Camps, the Eritrea-Ethiopia border, Hindu-Muslim conflict zones in India and Kashmir, revolutionary centers of the southern Philippines, the Gulf, Sri Lanka, and elsewhere. Frank was nominated for the Guru Nanak Interfaith Award, along with luminaries like the Dalai Lama and Desmond Tutu.  Frank is a true cosmic citizen and just plain fun, amazing and engaging!

Frank Kaufmann is a tireless toiler for truth and harmony. He is as humble as he is fascinating. He is currently offering a doctoral level course on Interfaith. He says, "As religions, through dialogue, understanding, and reconciliation develop the ability to work together, we must seek to discover what is the positive good for all that can come of these achievements, this newfound harmony, this powerful synergy."

Join us for what was another insightful program of truth seeking and God finding with a truly remarkable and inspiring man.
