"On this special occasion, as we dedicate a symbol which represents the ideal of unity and oneness of all world Teachers, one of my great dreams for many long years comes to fruition…For more than a quarter of a century this is what we have tried to accomplish; to place before the people of this country the wisdom and truth from all lands, classics and scriptures, in fact from the whole world, showing their underlying unity and harmony."
~ Swami Paramananda 1938
