About

Time to unleash our Hiddent Potential Beyond 2010 Right Now:

http://www.wiserearth.org/forum/view/643856f9fbba96df7af49ae8831181e1/new/1



I currently live in London UK and work with ethical,  peace loving, business and community leaders who love to share their gifts.
My parents come from a peaceful, loving, happy state called Goa. The Portuguese ruled this tiny state on the West Coast of India for 450 years. So we have over generations acquired a sense of serving others, being friendly and making a difference everyday.

I was born in Kampala, Uganda. I learnt at an early age how bad leaders ruin and destroy millions of lives and dreams acting as control freak dictators. In 1972 all Asians were evicted by Idi Amin Dada so we came to the UK to start our new life with no money.  But this was one of my key turning points in life .  Like most people I had to go through the ups and downs in life with steep learning curves that continue to shape our character.

I spent many years in thecorporate rat race and hated the office politics etc. Also,  I did not enjoy the creative accounting that took place with companies such as Enron, I did not like the greed factor used to exploit and abuse others.  I did not enjoy the What's in it for me attitude where just a few make earn all the money whilst the masses have the crumbs.  I quit the corporate race as I could not put up with the dog eats dog mind set, with too many selfish Greedy Fat Cats and man eating sharks. Until we break this viscious circle and negative cycle by sharing the wealth with others, we are doomed to failure.

 I knew that we have a limited time to get ourselves back into balance. In 2001, I invested most of  my hard earned savings  in The Peoples World Project. This has been a hard journey for us all for the past few years. The Founder fails to understand how to harness: Compassion, Trust, Integrity, Accountability, Responsibilty and Authenticity of getting this project off the ground.


Since then,  I made some amazing breakthroughs as I had to learn about how fear based leaders abuse OPM: Other Peoples Money. This was the birth of CTIARA was born.  Our mission is to expose leaders who shows no compassion, have no ethics as they prefer to follow bad business practices.  They love to play:  "The Blame Game, never admitting to their mistakes when they get things wrong. They fail to appreciate that as enlightened human beings we must unite people and not divide using FEAR: False Evidence Appearing Real.


We live in the most exciting times in human history. Yet, 3 billion people do not have the basics in life, the gap between the rich and poor continues to widen, people are divided with Fear and hatred creating more terror. But we must not quit or give up our fight as hopefully one day our leaders will see the light to make our world a better place for all.  It is time for us to unite and make a wonderful difference to humanity.


Please support Dalai Lama and the people from Tibet. We urgently need One Million Signatures. Here is the link to sign up and forward to your circle of friends, family, associates. Also a great opportunity to connect with my trusted network of collaborators:

Here is what I am Passionate about:

  • meeting open-minded, caring people who love to make a difference to others.
  • working with my mentors like Prof Yunus Projects, Dr. Deepak Chopra, Dr. Wayne Dyer, Jim Rohn
  • mentoring people who love to share their gifts, talents, resources, etc.
  • empowering and enriching my life whilst helping others to do the same.
  • sharing our success and being grateful to everyone I meet.
  • leaving a better legacy for humanity before it is too late...


    Here are some useful links to learn how my personal journey continues to evolve with other change makers who make Shifts happen through their gifts and inspiration:

As a CAFOD supporter for many years, I am happy to endorse their pledge to raise £ 300,000 for Haiti. Unlike many charities where the bulk of funds raises goes in admin or to third parties who are not accountable, CAFOD deals directly with local partners keeping their admin costs to the minimum. Here is their link to learn more about the great work they continue to do.
Please forward the link below to help support Haiti victims so they can secure safe drinking water right now.

We have a patron that has offered to purchase $100,000 worth of HydroWell Village and HydroPack systems to send to Haiti. We have figured out the logistics, located the 501c to donate the money to a US-based Haitian relief org. with 40 years of service; we are in the process of making it happen. 

We are looking to see if there is anyone else that wants to donate money to purchase and send systems to Haiti while we have this opening for the plane to get into the country. We have a limited amount of time to get the plane into Haiti. It will be leaving within the next 24 to 48 hours.

Please visit our website to donate $25.00 USD to this cause. Please spread the word: http://www.sea-pack.com

Dear Friends of Tibet,

 

We hope you are moved by Highway To Lhasa on You Tube:

 

 

Highway To Lhasa  http://www.youtube.com/highwaytolhasa

 

Dedicated to peace in Tibet, we believe that the world community must awaken to the tragic struggle of the Tibetan people as a matter of "justice and morality," which is how it was described by H H Dalai Lama in Boston recently.

 

Send a message of hope and encouragement by sharing Highway To Lhasa with friends and supporters.

 

Thank you,
