Kiitsu—Returning-to-One Andrew James Brown/Caute Welcome to "Kiitsu—Returning-to-One" the podcast formally known as "Making Footprints Not Blueprints." My name is Andrew James Brown, and I’m the Minister of the Unitarian Church in Cambridge, UK. Knowing that full scope always eludes our grasp, that there is no finality of vision, that we have perceived nothing completely, and that, therefore, tomorrow a new walk is a new walk, I hope that, on occasion, you’ll find here some helpful expressions of a creative, inquiring, free and liberative religion and spirituality that will help and encourage you to journey through life, making footprints rather than blueprints. Muslim Footprints The Ismaili An opportunity to deep-dive into Islam and Muslim civilisations, history and spirituality through the ages, accompanied by some of the best experts and academics in their field. Join us as we discover how Muslim societies and individuals have lived, thought about, and expressed their faith in their own ways as a pathway to the divine. We explore the far-flung lands that Muslims have lived in, the traditions – scientific, artistic, religious and cultural – they’ve contributed to, and the revelation itself, the Qur’an.
