“Satish Kumar offers us the gift of So Hum—You Are, Therefore I Am. His mental journey and inspirations need to become everyone's inspiration, to help us to move from violence to nonviolence, from greed to compassion, from arrogance to humility. Vandana Shiva Satish Kumar is, for me, the sage of the deep ecology movement.” —Fritjof Capra, author, The Tao of Physics and The Web of Life
“The life of this vigorous, wise, compassionate, and humble man is an example to all of us about how to make the most of our gifts and create our own opportunities to serve humanity's future.” —Hazel Henderson, author, Creating Alternative Futures
