The
coming planetary age does not belong to the conversion-seeking
religions of the West, which divide humanity into the believers and
the non-believers, but to the spirituality of consciousness such as
revealed in Hindu and Buddhist philosophies which unite humanity
into one great family.
It is time for Christians to come to India to
learn about God, such as the yogis and Swamis of the land have
realized, and to stop preaching about a God they do not really know
or represent.
We Hindus welcome a new era of Self-realization
and God-realization for all people beyond the boundaries of church
and dogma, honoring all individuals, all cultures and all spiritual
aspiration.
God is not the property of a church or of a belief
but is the true Self of all beings. Let us honor that Self in all
beings regardless of their religious affiliation.
