    How to bring the unity in the religions, which is the basis for world peace?


    The quarrel between the religions comes due to the fixed notion that the God found by a religion is the absolute truth and hence, the entire humanity should accept that [God] so that, that religion alone must exist. No religion has found the absolute original form of God because it is beyond the imagination of any human being. The unimaginable God can charge any imaginable medium and in such case, such medium gets identified with the God. Every religion found by a specific human being believes that a specific imaginable medium is God. Up to this point, the religion is correct because, such imaginable medium might have been charged and is identified with God. In this way, Krishna is God, Jesus is God, Mohammed is God, Buddha is God and so on. Sometimes a religion may select a visible medium as God even if it is not charged by God. One religion says that fire is God.

    Another religion says that the cosmic energy, which is all pervading, is God. Based on the merits of the media, such medium can also be treated as God because any visible medium can be treated as the representative model for God in the light of the specific merit of the medium. The fire burns everything as God burns all types of the ignorance. God is all pervading like the cosmic energy. Based on these merits, fire and cosmic energy can be treated as God. You must not forget that these representing media are not actually the God due to their defects. Fire cannot burn water and cosmic energy is inert. In any case, the imaginable item can never be the actual unimaginable God.
    The metallic wire is charged by current. This does not mean that the metallic wire itself is current. The national flag, which is a stick and a piece of colored cloth, can be a representative model of the nation. Obviously, the flag is the not the nation. The whole problem comes when the followers of the religions feel that the selected imaginable item itself is God and that alone is God.

    Every metallic wire charged by current can be treated as current. You cannot say that a specific wire alone should be treated as current and other electrified wires should not be treated as current. Even if you don’t differentiate the current and wire, it does not matter much. It may be correct also due to the inseparable current from the electrified wire. But, you should say that every electrified wire is current. Similarly, the representative model can be also believed as God directly for the development of faith and devotion on God. But, every representative model should be treated as God in similar way. You accept the process of identification in one place and reject the same process of identification in another place. This is due to lack of development of analytical faculty in the human being. This is the defensive way of bringing unity in the religions.

    that gets my attention
    Mankind created words to articulate a point from the "I" . They are a conscious experience and 'we' each can.

    Nothing outside of 'nature', except what mankind creates. and with the 'word' can move mountains

    ps... the process of life (the fire) is what enables (ed), the paradigm change.

    atoms are corporeal
    light is energy itself, the spirit
    time (alpha omega) the transcendent.

    All mass, all energy, all time; 1 (existence itself) ................... that's god.

    'we' all live within the embodment of 'all' that exists.

    The rest of that paragraph is 'less than' good
    Who is that you?

    'differentiate' .....?

    Comprehending that all is one and then for each to comprehend our associations is how to comprehend what we are. Telling someone that the "wire is current" is rediculous.

    All of us can learn and witness. Knowledge evolves over time with 'words' and experience. Like a pyramid, each previous layer sets the foundation for the next level. DNA/RNA is of the same latter effect but with the four 'colors' of em, wavelengths. See it like four sides of the pyramid, will reach a pinnacle eventually.

    Knowledge is what enables mankind, too comprehend. And yes, eventually the whole tree will have the same opportunity.

    With words a sort of owners manual, can be enabled to exist.. In todays world it could be an E-manual.

    I call it the "book of life"

    Stop discounting mankind as if unable. i hate that. If you aint enabling the next to be better than you, then stop misleading.

    Give to live
    Lying for dying

    good: supports life to continue
    bad: loss to the common

    measure your answers to any action you cause with them.

    For example; the thirsty want to know where is water; why lie (why send them elsewhere)
