Often, people who take responsibility do not pray, and those who pray do not take responsibility.
Every religion has three aspects; values, symbols and practices. There is diversity in practices and in symbols, where values are common in all religions.
The growth of fanaticism, fundamentalism and intolerance in the world is happening because people are stuck in only the practices, symbols or customs while forgetting the values.
Spirit loves diversity.
There is not just one type of fruit, one type of people, or one type of animal in this world. So let's not confine the spirit to a uniform. Let's enjoy the diverse variety of creation by honouring, respecting and loving them all.
We used to use the term "religious tolerance". I think that these words have become obsolete now, Your tolerate only which you don't love.
The time has come to love each other's religions as one's own.
A religion is great not just because it in mine; it is great because of what it is, This understanding in all the priests and clergymen and those who lead people in spiritual and religious light, will put an end to the fanaticism and fundamentalism going on in our beautiful world.
It will be very nice if together, we all adopt a resolution that we will educate our people to know a little bit from every religion in order to have broader vision about life. Without prayer and meditation, which are the spiritual aspects of life, religion becomes dry.
See love inside you and that is meditation; see God in the person next to you and that is service.
Service and medication go hand in hand. The previous century has been an era of uniforms and unions. Now let us move to an era of communion. With these few words , I pray and I take responsibility , both at the same time.
