THOMAS KADMON

Co-Founder

 

Why has Tom devoted many years to facilitating groups in classical wisdom and interfaith traditions? Christian by birth and practice, he has nevertheless, since boyhood, always wondered why there were so many paths in the world -  to Truth, God or Ultimate Reality. Tom was never content to ‘stay among my own kind’, ethnically, culturally, socially and religiously. He has always wanted to grow as a spiritual being by identifying with seekers of Truth from all traditions. He has attempted to see the path that stretches before them, both as individuals and in their groups. His deep-held conviction is that whatever measure of Truth he has been fortunate enough to apprehend has nothing to fear, and everything to gain, from encountering aspects of Truth in other places.  Tom has worked in high energy and high conflict environments - for example, as a residential care worker among the intellectually disabled, in the early days of their reintegration into normal community life. Whilst with the disability services, he completed formal, in-service training in conflict resolution. Those skills have been widely adapted and applied since then, yet the same principles governing resolution of a household quarrel can apply to international affairs. Through a spectrum of conflicts and challenges, Tom has facilitated a diverse range of professionals - from educators, natural health therapists, midwives, retailers, business people & school students - to work with a deeper sense of purpose in serving their clients & community.
