Joyce Namaste All, Never mind sectarianims, how about nationalism and jingoism? I'm surprised when seemingly 'aware', people subjugate their spirituality for nationalistic programming when pushed. There really is only one religion and that is Sanathana Dharma or Eternal Wisdom, where Huxley got his perennial wisdom expression from. All other religious constructs, including Hindu constructs are just mind training that's all..Re ligio= bind back....ONS....Tony. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
