Wording a Radiance. Daniel W. Hardy
(University of Virginia). There is also a film: http://www.pbs.org/wnet/religionandethics/week1106/cover.html. SR is growing fast in a number of countries around the world as a means of inter-faith dialogue.
13 My father died during the week when he had hoped to be at the annual SR gathering at the American Academy of Religion. Days before, when I told him that Peter wanted to come to see him, he protested (knowing how much SR meant to Peter) that he should go San Diego instead. When Peter decided to come anyway, he was only pacified when we agreed that we would do SR here, so that he could be part of it too. Sadly, Peter arrived just after he had died, but it seemed very fitting to honour this commitment anyway.
