THE UNITY OF RELIGION AND RELIGIOUS TOLERANCE
Each can think his particularly formulation of Divinity is superior. Vishnu can be made into the greatest devotee of Shiva or vice versa. We don't have to insist that we all agree with one another, which is childish, and much of the beauty of life is that we do see things differently. But we do have to learn to be considerate with those who don't agree with us. And regardless of our personal preferences we should seek to find out what is true through spiritual practices, and not merely be content with a belief or theory, which is always arbitrary.

Hinduism has always regarded freedom or liberation, Moksha , as the real goal of life. It leaves people free to discover whether the principles and views of Hinduism or Sanatana Dharma are true and does not seek to enforce them upon people, even those born as Hindus. This freedom of inquiry is the basis for real tolerance.
