Would it save you a lot of time if I just gave up and went mad now? ― Douglas Adams, The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy

My Journey

What can I say about a journey that began over 50 years ago and is still ongoing, within the space of this webpage? This whole site is for that purpose, but briefly here I will note that I became a Christian at eight years of age, “surrendered” to foreign mission work at nine years of age, when to university to study theology at 18, finished my theology degree at 23, became an atheist at 25, studied Buddhism from 36, began meditating at 36, became interested in ahimsa (am a vegan) at 51 and now here we are!

There is a lot more to my life than just these few religious milestones, but that is a brief summary. If you want to know more, you are welcome to delve into this site.

May all beings know peace!
