Though religions have distinct names and doctrines, in essence, all are one. They emphasize the common core. Unfortunately, the apparent differences amongst religions have subverted the amity of all men. All religious dogmas, except a few, can easily be harmonized and reconciled. The experience and wisdom of great seers who expounded universal love are not appreciated, accepted, and respected. The same God is extolled and adored in various names through varied ceremonial rituals. In every age, for every race or community, God has sent prophets to establish peace and goodwill. All great people are images of God. They form one single caste in the realm of God; they belong to one nation, the divine fellowship. The principle of harmonizing is the very heart of all religions and faiths. Interest yourself in understanding the practices and beliefs of others. This cleanses your mind. Then, with a loving heart, you will attain the Divine Presence.
