There are many religions and paths to journey in this lifetime. Everyone is certain that their way is the right way. I would like to put forth the theory that everyone is right. There is one Divine Being and it makes no difference what we call him/her/it. It doesn’t matter how we contact Divinity.
There is no God of any people who is not his God, no spiritual teacher of any creed who is not his teacher.There is no sacred scripture that he does not accept, since he is a worshipper of light and a follower of love. Yet he is free from all the world’s distinctions and differences.
The diversity of names in the universe to him is a veil of illusion which covers unity, the one life. Only One lives, and all manifestations are to him the phenomenon of that one life.
Sufi’s call their concept of God, the Beloved. They also call this Divinity Buddha, Mohammend and Jesus and Zoraster. Sufi’s are mystics and have contact with the One during meditation and certain practices. This Divine Being is all that is good and ideal in this universe. It is Beauty in its perfection.
Sufi’s believe that as high as is the ideal of a person, so high he rises in life. Then in the end he sees the Ideal was made by himself.
A Sufi does not withdraw from the world, but instead participates in life both by viewing it from above and from below. His holy book is nature and his community is the entire of mankind. So we are all united in love and adoration of the beauty of the Divinity of this Universe.
I think that there is not even a need to give that higher being we believe in (God) a name – it’s quite adequate to believe and feel his power.
Amen. Are you a long lost sister of mine? LOL

Must be! 😀 😀 😀
Religions distract us from God with doctrinal beliefs which only complicate our relationship with God.
The Divine is everywhere and everywhere the Divine is is sacred. Blessings to you, Barbara
Thank you!

Thank you for posting this. As the Beatles sang so long ago all we need is Love-and God IS Love so we’ve always got all we need;-)
