It remains one of the most valuable things I have found on the internet. Since then, I have tracked several other recordings of his lectures on religion, Islam, and the nature of belief. These lectures have had a profound impact on my life and my religious education. Throughout his life, Gary Miller has not had much of an online presence. Most of his lectures on religion were in the 1980’s and 1990’s. The recordings that survive of his lectures were ones made by event organizers or audience members that were later digitized and posted to various online forums. By that time, he had already quit public speaking and dedicated his time to teaching mathematics. As a result, much of the information available online about his life and his work is incomplete or inaccurate, and a number of photographs commonly attached to him are in fact of other individuals with the same name. On this page, I have attempted to bring together a short biography of Gary Miller and a comprehensive collection of recordings of his lectures. Please reach out if you are aware of any other recordings that can be added to this collection. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e7158338a1ca416794ba41/2591cd84-ebeb-4b6f-8daa-54f548c1b1b2/Gary%2BMiller%2B%283%29_edited.jpeg Gary Miller https://themindfulmuslim.com/about daily 0.75 2026-02-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61e7158338a1ca416794ba41/d9434f81-7787-4b1a-b102-1a15fe21f073/Photo.jpg
