Show Notes

A citizen of the universe honors the integrity of his culture, religion and traditions while simultaneously respecting and appreciating the diversity of all cultures, religions and traditions in the world. His desire is that we should all grow together, prosper together and enjoy fulfilment together. He seeks to remove the suffering in the world with the light of knowledge.
This poem by Rumi expresses the sentiments of a citizen of the universe.
" I am not from the East or the West
  I am not Christian or Jew or Muslim
  I am not Hindu, Buddhist, Sufi or Zen
  I do not belong to any established religion
  or any cultural system
  I am neither the body nor the soul,
  For I belong to Divine Soul of my Lord, my Beloved."
