Yesterday, I passed my viva with very minor corrections! Eternally grateful to my supervisor Prof @MarioIAguilar, @divinitysta, the examiners, and my fellow CSRP colleagues.🙏🏼

On the 29th of June at 10am we Scholars for Dialogue and friends of Pope Francis will gather at his tomb in Santa María Maggiore to pay our respects and pray for peace.

If you are curious about dialogue emerging from ancient Hindu traditions, register now at shorturl.at/tJHoz to listen to these enriching research presentations.

It has been a while since we have been organising this symposium to foster more dialogue centred in the Hindu traditions. So pleased to invite you all to join us in generating more interdisciplinary scholarship on dialogue. Registration is open to all! Please refer to the flyer!

The 2026 Gifford Lectures at the University of St Andrews!

One must cling to the hope of a peaceful tomorrow!

Yesterday, I had the opportunity to be the guest speaker for the course “Religion and Communication,” taught by Dr. Melanie Barbato at RWTH Aachen University, Germany. It was a pleasure to share my research & reflect on my journey as a scholar of interfaith dialogue and Hinduism.

Happy to share that we will have a panel at this year's EuARe event! Please do consider presenting with us: secure.onlinecongress.it/Olc/Client/Pro…

Letters to the Executive Committee of the 2026 St Andrews Declaration for a Shared Humanity start to go out, and here we go again after 10 years of the initial Declaration. I would hope that this time we have somebody from the Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem, from the Patriarch of Constantinople, the Armenians, the Lebanese Maronites, and the women from Afghanistan. The ceremony should be sharp, peaceful and meaningful for peace and rights.@SaraWahedi @Annsabedoras @shrutidxt04

For solidarity and dialogue! 🙏🏼

As HH @Pontifex departs for Turkey and Lebanon we pray for his mission of peace and interfaith dialogue. I shall be personally involved on Friday proceedings. I ask for your prayers and I shall be briefing my colleagues at the meeting of Scholars for Dialogue tomorrow. Mater Dei Ora pro nobis! @divinitysta @shrutidxt04 @Annsabedoras

In other news, I have been elected as a member of the Board of Directors of the Society for Hindu-Christian Studies for the next four years. I am really grateful for this position and look forward to continuing my journey towards the advancement of Interreligious Dialogue. 🙏🏼

I am so pleased that I got the opportunity to present my research on Hindu-Taoist dialogue on the feminine as a part of the Raimon Panikkar Consultation Group at the AAR 2025 in Boston. What a wonderful group of scholars working towards keeping Panikkar’s thoughts alive!

It was an honour to deliver a guest lecture at the Manchester Cathedral on “Building Unity through Hindu-Christian Dialogue in the Face of Global Crises”. This event kicked off Interfaith Week on the 10th of Nov and I am grateful to the Dean for extending his invitation to me.🙏🏼

An excellent conversation with @shrutidxt04 in Edinburgh today. We are co-chairs of Scholars for Dialogue together with @Annsabedoras and the group continúes to meet on Thursdays. Join us if you want!

Do apply if you are interested in diverse approaches to dialogue from the perspective of Hindu traditions! 🙏🏼
