Why are you here?

Have you ever asked “Why am I here?” or questioned the meaning and purpose of life? I believe that the answer to these questions is unique to every individual and can only be discovered by embarking on a life-long spiritual quest.

This quest for meaning may start right now. You may discover the answers in this lifetime or in the life to come but as the sage says “All great journeys must begin with one first step.”

In this section you can read articles and extracts from my books about the meaning and purpose of life and why we live and why we die. But this is not just an intellectual quest: to know the truth you must find out for yourself and not through other people’s belief but through your own personal direct experience.

What is Spirituality?

Spirituality is a term that has various meanings depending upon your belief system and cultural background. A simple definition is "devotion to metaphysical matters, as opposed to worldly things." Another is "Activities which renew, lift up, comfort, heal and inspire both ourselves and those with whom we interact." Spirituality may include belief in supernatural powers.

In recent years, spirituality has come to mean a personal quest for divine knowledge that is direct and non dependent on belief in a dogma or creed. Spirituality is a way to God that is personal, less dogmatic, open to new ideas and pluralistic when compared to the faiths and dogma of established religions.
