Meeting of World Religious Leaders (Amritsar, India, November 2007)

Since the late spring/early summer of 2007, Timothy has served on the academic "think tank" of the Elijah Interfaith Institute. The first project they shouldered was planning a meeting of world religious leaders, including His Holiness the Dalai Lama, in Amritsar, India, from November 26-30, 2007. In preparation for the meeting, each think tank member crafted a tradition-based paper on "Sharing Wisdom," each paper now in final preparations for publication in an edited volume through Elijah.
