"I believe that everything that you stated in your email is correct. I was the pastor/minister for many years and before I left the ministry in 2000 to go to work at the university where I am currently employed. I served as a Baptist pastor for over  16 years when I left the ministry.  I hope to retire from the university in the next 12 months. I will be  62 years of age and am not sure what the Lord would have me to do at  that time, but I am excited about the possibilities of collaboration". (Prof. Daniel Bowers, Academic adviser, Univ. of Manitoba).

"I share your thoughts and fully agree with you. As a person who has been closely associated with Business schools for the past few years, I have felt the same - they teach exceptional business analysis skills but seldom address the Human part of it. I believe each business school must have a paper on building the character of individual whoever he might be.  I wish there is some way I could help you or be a part of your project. Lord Buddha has said " everything happens twice in this world, first in the mind of the person and then in the real world" You have it in your mind and now you will see it in real world.  All the best to you Sir." (Balaji Jagadeesan, HR Director, IMT-Dubai)

“It was pretty much very impressive ... Your experience and accomplishments are quite phenomenal, I have never had any direct contact with great achievers like you except reading or hearing about them.  I am honoured and lucky to be connected with you. I will certainly pick and buy couple of interesting published stuff from you when I meet you this time.  I am still thinking how best I can come up with any plan to conclude on any workable business with you.  It is my privilege, if I could do something with you, together.  Kindly bless me to try on that.” Veera Babu, Businessman & Ph.D student.
