| Introduction | Retired professor, author/writer, ethicist, political activist, humanitarian, anti-war activist, and anti-colonial and anti-imperialist writer and historian. Religion: Buddhist, follower of the Japanese Shinto “naturefolk” spiritual way of life. No “paradise,” no “kingdom of god,” and no need for “redemption.” Live a natural life and be just and good to all things in nature. Peace is better than war, because life is better than death. Greed is the source of all evil. Spirituality is the context of our present existence that releases us from the vanity of struggling for eternity. We are recyclable matter of nature, and living our cycle with dignity and respect for all natural things is the best way to enjoy the journey of our passage in life. |
