Ancient Wisdom, Sacred Unity, and the Golden Thread Connecting Humanity's Great Spiritual Traditions
Author: Zerbanoo Gifford
Published: 1 March 2026
Format Paperback
Dedicated to Pope Leo & King Charles
Endorsed by 40 global religious leaders
This book began with a question that Zerbanoo Gifford has been answering in practice for forty years: how do we find the golden thread that runs through all of humanity's great spiritual traditions, and what becomes possible when we lead from that place rather than from fear or division?
Drawing on ancient wisdom, lived activism, and decades of interfaith dialogue across continents, A Call to Consciousness asks how leaders, changemakers, and citizens can act from wholeness. It is not a book of theory. It is a book forged in the field.
Written in direct response to the founding inquiry of One Humanity Lab at George Washington University, where Zerbanoo serves as a Founding Fellow, it carries the endorsement of 40 global religious leaders and is dedicated to Pope Leo and King Charles as a testament to the power of spiritual courage in public life.
"What began as an invitation became, quietly and beautifully, a presence." - Dr. Ina Gjikondi, One Humanity Lab, George Washington University
Endorsed by 40 global religious leaders including Pope Leo, King Charles and 38 further religious and spiritual leaders from across the world's great faith traditions
