“What Can We Do For Mankind”.<br />

Samina and I have known the head of the center,<br />

Swami Ji Veetamohananda for several years, and have<br />

previously attended interfaith conferences at the centre.<br />

We have been acutely impressed by Swamiji’s sincerity,<br />

humility and dedication to interfaith dialogue and religious<br />

tolerance.<br />

About 150 people attended the conference. Participants<br />

included Christians of various denominations,<br />

Muslims, Jews, Buddhist monks and nuns from France,<br />

Austria, Germany, UK and USA.<br />

lectures. The conference participants were truly pleased<br />

to hear Samina on both days. Samina’s lecture on Signif-<br />
