The seminar showcased a new openness to what pluriform influences can make our culture and civilization one of mutual dialogue and enrichment. This seminar expressed the search of a confused people for a full mature and whole life. While being a probe into the rationale for meaning in life, it was also a search for the roots & wings of humanity.
Congratulations to Pune University for organizing such a radical seminar and workshop where people from various tangents and bi-polarized viewpoints met in the same air conditioned hall to look into each other's eyes, face each other and re-assure ourselves that our common future is bright and we are on our way to a 'hot' communication that is honest, open, transparent and human dialogue in a fair and free manner for building a Better India.
