THE UNITY OF RELIGION AND RELIGIOUS TOLERANCE
The most we can say about the commodity of the goal of religions is that all religions direct us to a relationship with a Spiritual Reality as they have conceived It to be, which can be quite variable. The relationship stressed may not be a realization at all-which implies a radical change of consciousness but conversion to a  belief or to a pattern of behavior wherein we maintain our ordinary human and egoic mentality but oriented in a different direction. If it is a mystical experience of the Divine that they seek, it can occur on many different levels and in many different ways and may not be conceived as Self-realization or realization of the Absolute.

The conflicts between various religions have existed at least partly because such differences are inherent within them. Some religions insist upon a personal Creator God as the Supreme Reality, who may be limited to a particular book, savior or prophet.
