"'The series of texts translated at the instigation of the International Sacred Literature Trust will make the world's heritage of spiritual and ethical insights available to a much wider audience. I hope it will help to break down the barriers of suspicion and ignorance and encourage understanding and tolerance in this age of tension and conflict.' His Royal Highness Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh 'I welcome the work of the International Sacred Literature Trust in making available to so many people books revealing the great teachings of love, compassion and universal responsibility - themes that underlie all the world's great sacred traditions.' His Holiness The Dalai Lama 'For readers of poetic and inspired literature, as well as for those interested in international understanding on the deepest level, it is hard to imagine a publishing venture more radical, more imaginative, more desirable or more exciting.' Ted Hughes"
