Dr. Roy Tamashiro shares stories and life lessons from his global peace pilgrimage (2015-present).He received insights on today’s world problems while tracing the footsteps of The Buddha, Mahatma Gandhi, and Nelson Mandela. Extraordinary messages came from Nature, from the Earth herself and from sources beyond the ordinary. He found insights into healing and peace from Holocaust survivors, massacre witness-survivors in Vietnam and Korea, and “A-bomb legacy successors” who shared their memories and traumas.
