Guest guest Posted June 27, 2002 Report Share Posted June 27, 2002 In the religion of Christ there was little of crudeness; there is very little difference between the pure religion of Christ and that of the Vedanta. You find there the idea of oneness but Christ also preached dualistic ideas to the people in order to give them something tangible to take hold of, to lead them up to the highest ideal. The same Prophet who preached, " Our Father which art in heaven " , also preached, " I and my Father are one " , and the same prophet knew that through the " Father in heaven " lies the way to the " I and my Father are one " -- ______________________________ Today we continue: PRACTICAL VEDANTA IV (Delivered in London, 18 November 1896) This lecture is found in Vol. II of the Complete Works, pg. 328-340. This is a part of a daily study of the lectures and writings of Swami Vivekananda. All lectures are sent out in sequenced form, as he spoke them.
