About The Author

The author was born in Sri Lanka, formerly known as Ceylon, and has been a citizen of the United Kingdom for over five decades. After completing his secondary education and a brief period of employment in Sri Lanka, he relocated to England with the goal of furthering his academic and professional qualifications. Through determination and perseverance, he successfully achieved his ambitions – earning distinction as a Chartered Engineer (CEng) & European Engineer (Eur Ing), while also establishing himself as a Finance Professional, Quality and Assurance Specialist, & Corporate Internal Auditor. His distinguished career spans the commercial, military, aerospace and transport sectors, & has taken him across the globe, offering him a rich tapestry of cultural experiences and inter-national perspectives. In his early years in the UK, before attaining professional status, he worked in a range of settings including factory floors, security facilities, mental health institutions, & the entertainment industry. These formative experiences gave him valuable insight into people from all walks-of-life, diverse faiths, and every stratum of society. A reliable and reflective individual, he is deeply committed to rural development and voluntary service. While not a devout follower of any single religion, he has a profound interest in exploring the meaning of life through various spiritual and philosophical traditions. This openness, combined with his broad life experiences, informs the thoughtful and introspective tone of this book.
