Passage 14

In English

Different religions may look different and their paths may look different, but the goal is only one. The clothes that different people wear may be different, but the material with which the clothes are made is one. The ornaments may be different but the gold out of which they are made is only one. The colours of different cows may be different but the milk that they all give is only one. The or philosophies may be different, but the God about whom they speak is only one. The flowers may be different but the offering will be the same. People delude themselves into ignorance of the basic truth. They create for themselves an illusion of plurality, build up walls of difference among themselves and plunge into suffering and grief. One must try to get the source of knowledge and realise the basic unity of all creation. That will make our life sacred and meaningful.
