An Open Letter to Juan Dela Cruz (ePub)

Reynaldo R. Budhi wrote this book in the hope of bringing changes to the religiosity
of his countrymen in the Philippines. He is now 69 years old and has retired from
government service three years ago. By profession, he is a Licensed Certified Public
Accountant who practiced over 35 years as an accountant, auditor and bank examiner
in private and public entities. He was once a bank examiner with the Central Bank of the
Philippines before immigrating to the United States in 1973. He is blessed with four
sons all living in the United States and Taiwan. His wife is a public school teacher and had just retired.

He concluded his professional life by joining the New York State Banking Department
in 2001, also as a bank examiner. He retired in July of 2006 and immediately started
writing this book. The contents of this book is outside the field of his expertise in
terms of his education, training and orientation. But, his motivation is the thought that
his message might bring evolutionary changes in the thinking and attitude of his countrymen in the Philippines and the rest of the world on religion and the idea of God.

In his view, religion is the gateway to knowledge of humanity and should be taught
in honest and realistic terms instead of allowing its use as a tool of shady politics and
material greed. He believes in God but not in the same traditional notions taught by demagogues. His experiences and definition of God is very personal and believes that communion with Him is only possible through the mind and heart of a true believer.
