Arizona Interfaith Movement comes out with a Unique Interfaith Book

We all are acutely aware that with each passing day our world keeps on getting further fragmented into smaller segments as a result of race, religion, caste, country or culture. In order to build bridges, therefore, one may have to depend upon an act of divine intervention.

And divine intervention did indeed take place, when Arizona Interfaith Movement came up with a brilliant idea to build bridges among different faiths. The idea was to compile a book titled as "Interfaith Inspirations for our Globalized world." to be written by active practitioners of 22 different religious traditions represented in Arizona Interfaith Movement.

With a voluntary labor of love by all the contributors, the book was completed in six months and finally unveiled in presence of most of the authors on December 9th in Phoenix, Arizona by Dr. Paul Eppinger, the Executive Director of Arizona Interfaith Movement. The writer of this news item Dr. Jaswant Singh Sachdev along with S.S. Gurukirn Kaur Khalsa (Pic 1) had the privilege to contribute their thoughts from Sikh perspective in this book.

All authors of the book

This anthology consisting of 431 pages primarily contains entries by active practitioners/ authors (Pic 2) It contains the interpretations, opinions and understandings of these contributors. Although pages contributed from Sikh writers are very limited in number, but the contents were uniquely relevant to the issues they were posed. Several religious authorities of different faiths such as His Holiness, the Dalai Lama, Reverend Dirk Ficca, Executive Director Council for a Parliament of the world religions and many others have written laudable introduction for this book. In fact, His Holiness Dalai Lama while welcoming this compilation has stated in the introduction that "the reflections contained in this book will provide needed thought for everyone." The book is available through Arizona Interfaith Movement. Its' website could be visited at www.interfaitharizona.com
