Thubten Comerford’s Summary

Lumen Global is blazing a trail to the most effective, perhaps the shortest route to this goal: A world that works for everyone, with no one left out - Heaven on Earth.

The context within which we have chosen to accomplish this goal is the world of business. While we have a solid foundation of spiritual tradition, we know how business works and how to get the work of business done.

The parable of the Good Samaritan demonstrates that only the people with resources can make a real difference. Lumen Global is committed to accumulating resources to make a difference with, and to bringing as many others along on this journey as possible. Is that you?

For "For Profit" Organizations:
Lumen assists new and established companies attract the capital required for them to grow. Lumen also assists new companies with retainer-based early-stage company pitfall avoidance consulting services.

For "For Benefit" Organizations:
Lumen assists "for benefit" organizations to reach a level of self-sustaining wealth where the organization can concentrate on providing the benefits they were founded to provide, eventually putting themselves out of business (a good thing).

For Individuals:
Lumen assists those who are aligned with our stated goals to reach a level of wealth that allows for profound generosity. How many multi-millionaires can we make in this process? Will you be one of them? Let's see!

For Private Equity and Venture Investors:
Lumen's opportunity screening service provides angel groups, as well as private equity and venture capital investors the freedom to only consider pre-screened opportunities that match their specific investment profile.
