In plain words
When smoke has a mass of embers at its root, when the train has a driver who runs it, when the automatic light has its limits set, must there not be One who creates Prakṛti?
Embodiments of Prema!
This wondrous, many-coloured world of the moving and the unmoving has one Creator. He knows all; He is all-powerful. He is everywhere. Many have remembered that God by many names, sung His glory and crossed over.
"Allah," say the Muslims; "Jehovah," say the good Christians; "the One with lotus eyes," say the Vaiṣṇavas; "Śambhu," say the Śaivas; and always, as all of them worship Him with delight, long life, enjoyment, fortune and every gain of wealth He grants them, and protects them: think of the Paramātma as the One alone.
Unity, the feeling of community, and Bhakti and surrender are essential for every human being. Wishing these three sacred principles to grow in the world of men, many great souls founded certain religions. Religion is not merely something limited. Religion is what shows the way to man's welfare and to the supreme goal of life. Religion is what stirs up the humanness in man and makes him live his life joyfully, together with others. Religion is what brings about the bond and kinship between the jīva and God. Religion is what reveals the unity within the many. Prema, tyāga, service and Dharma are the chief limbs of this religion. Religion is what spreads the divine feelings and good feelings in man and offers them to society. Religion is what brings out the greatness, the joy and the harmony in human life and teaches unity to the world.
It is a misfortune that today people live such a divine religion, practise it, preach it and propagate it with narrow feelings. This religion is a stream that is part of the whole of mankind itself. To spread this sacred secret of religion through society, the founders of religions laid down certain rules and went on preaching and teaching it in the world.
