A wise lady once said, there is only one religion- the religion of love.
A wise man once said, it doesn’t matter who you worship- Parampita ek hi hain.
Everybody loves their place, language and religion of origin, however we should never be egotistical of concepts like religion, caste or a category. Do we remember what religion we belonged to 3 lifetimes before? No, we don’t right? Then why get into the debate of who is superior and who is inferior when our identity is not dependent on the concept of religion.
We can always say oh I have a relationship with a particular divinity because it’s not really about the religion- you know why? books and scriptures are for our reference. Ofcourse they teach us good things but not being open to learning new things, different things, only restricting ourselves to what the Gita has to say, Bible has to say is limiting ourselves from understanding why they say being spiritual is being limitless.
Doesn’t it feel good to understand we learn to live life wisely from Lord Ram. Doesn’t it sound nice to learn from Jesus who taught us how to forgive our brothers and sisters in Christ, how to preach wisdom, how to heal others, how to get people to repent, to be the saviour for sinners all at once? Does it not feel peaceful to learn from Buddha how to sit still at a place and look within? Does it not feel great to learn from Krishna why we must not tolerate adharma and fight against injustice?
You know what are we are learning today?
Hindu Vs Muslim Vs Christianity
BJP Vs MNS Vs Shiv Sena Vs Congress Vs RSS or say Republican Vs Democratic
India Vs Pakistan or say Russia Vs Ukraine
Gujarati Vs Marathi Vs UP Vs Bihari
The great man, Sadhguru once said never force anybody to follow a religion strictly. If at all a society insists, then let the person choose his own once he/she turns 18. Even a man like David Miliband sees God in his people- he is out there doing divine work- rescuing people from many countries- I wish he’d rescued me too.
I am not an Atheist, I love both Jesus and Shiva equally unconditionally. I have a relationship with Shiva, Christ, Dattaguru, Devi, Swami, Ram, Ganpati, Nature, Universe, every species on this planet that co-exists with us because the lady rightly said, God is Omnipresent.
Practice this religion- The religion of the awakened soul.
A) Close your eyes and pray in spirit- you will only see oneness, sit next to a river or a mountain or in isolation- you will find healing and peace within. God is within you.
B) Delivering our duties with devotion- how we behave, are we kind, are we polite, are we loyal, are we caring, are we forgiving, are we sensitive in spirit, are we loving, are we ethical?
We don’t have to be perfect, religion of the awakened soul teaches us to be conscious. “Nahi samajla? Marathit saangu? Aree… ata tar Marathit pan nahi saangu shakat, because now we need to find that language which is Omnipresent”.
