There is immense silent agony in the world, and the task of man is to be a voice for the plundered poor, to prevent the desecration of the soul and the violation of our dream of honesty.
The more deeply immersed I became in the thinking of the prophets, the more powerfully it became clear to me what the lives of the Prophets sought to convey: that morally speaking, there is no limit to the concern one must feel for the suffering of human beings, that indifference to evil is worse than evil itself, that in a free society, some are guilty, but all are responsible.
“The Reasons for My Involvement in the Peace Movement” (1972); later included in Moral Grandeur and Spiritual Audacity (1996).

Now I write, teach and coach mainly about 21stC 'interfaith as inter-spirituality' - and how we can grow closer to our True Self.
.
As anyone who knows anything about IPF will realize my energy is curtailed - so I am concentrating primarily on 'inter-spirituality'.
.
In the past I would have said that:
.
1) I run courses and give talks at conferences and in universities and colleges in the UK, China, USA, Canada, Scandinavia etc.
.
2) I provide materials, outlines and lessons for Schools.
.
3) My range of interests include personal development, learning and teaching, photography and film, the arts generally, spirituality and educational practice and theory.
.
4) At the same time I continue developing the human-centred studies SunWALK PDS (People Development System) - a whole-person, high-achievement model for individuals, and for use in, NGOs, schools and other organizations.
.
5) The key question that continues to animate me and my work remains, "What is it to be fully and positively human?"
