Guest guest Posted January 11, 2002 Report Share Posted January 11, 2002 Extract from Swami Ashokananda's Psychology of God-vision One of the principle teachings of Vedanta is that all religions are true, <snip> ..Let me say however, that when we judge for example Christianity or Islam or Judaism we do not judge them as taught by their priests, but rather as they are experienced by their mystics. And when you go to the mystics you discover a wonderful thing; there is almost a complete unanimity amongst the mystics of all the different religions. The Christian mystics and the Hindu mystics talk the same language - there is no difference. And if you analyse the methods these mystics have followed in order to reach their spiritual goals, you find they are about the same; maybe they have different guises, but underneath essentially they are the same. That is where we find the unanimity, the unity, and even the identity of all the religions of the world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
