UGCSI Professor Launches New Book on World Kindness Day

Richards Bay, Kwa-Zulu Natal, South Africa - 13 November 2022, Prof. Shakuntala Rose Reddy officially launched her new book entitled “MAKE KINDNESS THE NORM: A BUILDING BLOCK OF CIVILITY.” She hosted a triple celebration, which included; World Kindness Day, her book launch, and her birthday.

The book was published on 28 September 2022. It was launched on Amazon on the 5th of October and officially released on 13 November, World Kindness Day. 

It is available to be purchased from Amazon for your Kindle App or a hard copy. The book has ranked # 48 in Ethics & Morality and #65 in Friendship books.

 Present to witness that momentous occasion were dignitaries from the Kwa Zulu Natal Department of Education, Mrs. T. Mlambo, Mrs. E. Arumugam, Apostle, Dr. D. Munsamy, family, friends and colleagues.

All of her writing are Holy Spirit inspired. This book is the result of her second Doctorate, (Searcherdemics, God’s Education System). She has been writing this book since the Covid 19 shut down, which kept billions imprisoned in their homes, but for her, it was an opportunity to write; making this publication the fruit of her labour.

"This book is about stepping away from random acts of kindness to everyday acts of kindness,' explains Professor Reddy, "whereby it becomes the norm by making it a lifestyle. One’s lifestyle is the way we live without being told by anyone what one should or shouldn’t do. Every time one opens one’s mouth, words of kindness, should come forth. This will inspire others and encourage them to do likewise. Every act of kindness demonstrated will cause others to continue creating a ripple effect."

“We are becoming a Kingdom Integrated Nation who are Developing Notions for Essential Spirit Saturated citizens.” - Rose Reddy 

Her ACRONYM for KINDNESS is:

Stewardship

Let your acts of kindness warm cold hearts, bring a smile to the lips and maybe a tear of joy to the eyes.” - Rose Reddy 

Professor Reddy has also created 6 Kindness Activity Books for Level 1,2 &3 children. It is in both English and Zulu. She plans to have it included in the Life Skills Curriculum at schools. Her aim is to introduce the concept of KINDNESS at the tender ages, where it will take root and bear fruit when they're older. She believes that it will develop a new calibre of men and women who will respect and treat each other with dignity.

"I pray that as you read this book you will be inspired to become a KINDNESS AMBASSADOR in your neck of the woods," concludes Professor Reddy. "Remember that KINDNESS is the new beautiful.

“For attractive lips, speak words of kindness.

For lovely eyes, seek out the good in others.

For a slim figure, share your food.

For poise, walk with the knowledge that you’ll never walk alone.”

We are dedicated to bringing humanity back to its God given purpose of living a fulfilled, accepted life of civility. “ - Rose Reddy
