“More people have died in the name of God and religion than in all the wars and natural calamities. But, the real purpose of any religion is to educate us about our spiritual unity. It is time for us to recognize that there is one truth and many approaches. The basic cause for all the world problems is the lack of understanding of our spiritual unity. The need of the hour is to know, respect, love one another and to live as one global family. Our humble aim in building the LOTUS is to spread this message.” —H. H. Sri Swami Satchidananda
Enjoy exploring the information on the philosophy behind the LOTUS and the importance of interfaith cooperation in our world today. Please share the site with your loved ones, friends, colleagues, clergy, community leaders and all, through the virtual tour, slide shows, video clips and the extensive information found herein.
