About

Jonas was born in a Christian tradition, immersed himself in the eastern religions when he was young, studied philosophy, anthropology and theology as an adolescent and married a Muslim as an adult. It all led him to a certain spiritual point that might not be too easily definable. Yet, as he says: "To be open to what prophets and sages of different traditions have said and done is more important than trying to define those traditions or their teachings. Life is not about concepts and definitions. It's about being inspired and about trying to put that inspiration into practice."
