RE:Dear Ismail Sayyed and all
by sridhar gorantla on Nov 12, 2007 02:57 PM

When you have personal experience of ALLAH OR GOD OR THE UNIVERSAL POWER THAT POWERS THIS ENTIRE UNIVERSE, INCLUDING YOU, ME AND EVERTYING IN THIS WORLD, then you will be humbled by it.

The moment religion comes between an individuality and the universalness or ALLAH OR GOD OR PARAMATMA OR HEAVENLY FATHER, then the troubles comes. After all, religion is just a set of rules (like a map to a traveler), but rreligion by itself is not the GOD OR ALLAH OR ALL PERVADING DIVINTIY.

Once you travel to your destination, you scrap the map that guided you, but if troubles are caused to you in between, because of following the map, then you either had diverted from what is said in the map(by way of misinterpreting it) or the map itself is incorrect and needs a reision of the map. In case of hte religions, most of the religions have been misinterpreted, or the subtle content was lost since people had focused much on the extra things rather than focussing on the DIVINITY itself.

Lets not account the religious texts for the mistakes that humanity did, but lets account the humanity for this (in particular those who misinterpreted these holy scriptures) and try to look in to the subtle meanings of the scriptures, by calming down our minds and by controlling our senses. This is the only way for us to proceed, and any other ways will lead only more and more troubles. This is the only scientific approach.
