"I think in religion, it's very important to understand that we're the main person in charge, we cannot delegate our spiritual growth. We cannot ask someone else to do it for us. It's not like a class teacher who is teaching us mathematics or history. When we are told something, this first step is of no importance, if we don't make something out of it and making something out of it is being able to build it in your own life from our center. And usually that means being able to share it somehow with other people. ​" Thomas reflects on the future of religion for him. Thomas, a meditator from France is responsible for a permaculture project at Bonnevaux Center for Peace.
