Welcome to the website for Spiritual Awakening Radio. Have been involved with Public Radio, Radio For Peace International, the community radio movement, Wisdom Radio, satellite radio and television, am an independent producer currently creating programs for several stations, including HealthyLife.Net – The Positive Talk Radio Network. I review books, am an author, teacher, public speaker, broadcaster.
My focus is spirituality: using the radio airwaves, the spoken word, writing, and online social networking/blogging to promote spirituality, meditation, religious literacy, inter-faith studies and dialogue, comparative religion, also education for a more peaceful world. This includes AHIMSA principals of non-violence in thought, word, and deed, raising awareness about certain civilization-busting issues including climate change, and promoting the vegetarian vegan diet. Interested in networking with organizations that desire the constructive use of media to advance health, well being, and positive change.
Mission Statement: 'There's not just one religion – there are thousands! After years of being concerned that too few voices, too few points of view were getting heard when it comes to spiritual paths and world religions – that the radio airwaves were not reflecting the diversity that really exists – I started producing my own programs, exploring the world of spirituality, comparative religion, meditation, mysticism, websites, the vegetarian vegan diet, and books, bringing to the airwaves: the gentle voices of Saints, the Wisdom of Masters or Mystics, world scriptures, sacred texts, the great spiritual traditions and classics of the East & the West.'
Interests: Exploring the World of Spirituality, Comparative Religion, Meditation, Websites, and Books, Including World Scriptures, Gnostic Texts, Spiritual Classics, Guidance by Living Teachers, and Other Books that Matter – A Format of Essays and Interviews
All for the love of Wisdom and radio,
