Various religious systems have been given to humanity at different times, each suited to meet the spiritual needs of the people among whom it was promulgated, and, coming from the same divine source: - God, all religions exhibit similar fundamentals or first principles.

In my opinion, there is one singular problem with religions in general: they are exclusive. To me, this exclusivity is not right.

I concluded that all religions had the same foundation - a belief in the supernatural - a power above nature that man could influence by worship - by sacrifice and prayer.

In principle the great religions of the world do not differ as much as they appear to.

There is only one religion, though there are a hundred versions of it.

The essence of Hinduism is the same essence of all true religions: Bhakti or pure love for God and genuine compassion for all beings.

All religions develop, become exclusive, become divisive and quarrelsome.

Most religions live from a narrative that shapes their relationship with the divine other, God or the gods, and with the human other, the stranger.

All... religions show the same disparity between belief and practice, and each is safe till it tries to exclude the rest.
