The Matheson Trust was established in London in 1974 by Donald McLeod Matheson C.B.E. (1896-1979). Matheson himself was a fine translator of works related to the universal aspects of religion, and thus the Trust was from the beginning dedicated to the study of comparative religion, especially from the point of view of the underlying harmony of the great religious and philosophical traditions of the world.
