Like many, I have given the origin and meaning of life a great deal of thought
in an effort to live it fully—with grace and intelligence. In the process, I
discovered that theological/philosophical discussions on reality are empty
without the consideration of scientific inquiry as they inform each other on the
nature of human existence. We can benefit immensely from the great minds
chronicled in this book that have dramatically changed the world and helped man
imagine himself in it—leading to one’s own self-discovery.
DISCOVER:
In Theology
(1) Is the soul immortal? Is reincarnation possible?
(2) Islam’s holiest shrine in Mecca was built by the founding father of the Jewish
nation.
(3) How one man uprooted 1500 years of Roman Catholic domination with a simple
document.
In Philosophy
(1) Is the world pre-determined with orderly harmony or governed by man’s free will?
(2) Is knowledge gained solely from experience and reasoning—or is it innate?
(3) How the self-awareness of existentialism allows one to live an authentic life.
(4) How 9th century Muslim scholars contributed to the foundation of modern
civilization.
In Science
(1) What makes all physical matter stable? How does matter reproduce itself?
(2) Isaac Newton described gravity’s effect, but it was Einstein who showed how it
originated.
(3) Did man evolve or was he created?
(4) The search for a unifying theoretical basis of all the sciences. 
After earning a degree in Theology/Philosophy, I followed what appeared to be a foreordained path to study architecture. I received a Master’s Degree in Architecture and harnessed a thirty- year profession in the field of real estate development. My position in prominent New York architectural firms and with international real estate developers resulted in the successful design, development and construction of over 25 million square feet worldwide. I continue to passionately pursue a multi-layered life that includes philanthropy, sport, and academics: as the head of the venerable Village Temple Soup Kitchen in New York City since 1999, an ardent fly fisher for trout, a certified United States Professional Tennis Association (USPTA) teaching pro and high school tennis coach, and an author who continues a quest for knowledge and an elevated understanding of human existence. My life in New York City, with my wife of 36 years and adult daughter, continues to be filled with great majesty.
