subject: Secularism, A Must For World Peace [print this page]

In some websites I was shocked to see a write up on Anti-Secularism, saying

that one Religion is the only Truth.

Secularism is the Way. Syncretism or Ecumenism is the grandchild of Indian

Philosophy and Western Philosophy.Great philosophers have extolled

Syncretism and Secularism.

God is same to all human beings. Saying one Religion or one Civilization is

greater than the other is the sign of fools.

Sucn people also talk about Creationism, an outdated concept. Darwin's Law

of Evolution is universally followed. It is unfortunate that some people cling to

old dogmas, in a world ruled by Science and Philosophy.

The World Religious Crisis is created by some people who cannot see the

light of Reason, the reality of Secularism and Syncretism. They believe that their

Faith is the greatest and that others should be converted to their faith !

Man follows the laws of the Earth

Earth follows the laws of Heaven

Heaven follows the laws of the Self

And Self follows the laws of His intrinsic nature !

All mysticism points out that the Inner Reality is hidden.

An Indian mystic by the name of Bodhidharma travelled to China and Dhyan (

Meditation ) became the Chinese Ch'an and the Japanese Zen ! Zen followers

worship the metaphysical entity ( Bodhi Dharma ) which to them represents the

Absolute Bodhi Essence. The Chinese share this doctrine of Absolute Bodhi

Essence with the Indian Buddhist tradition !

Cosmic Illusion ends

When Self is seen !

Sorrow ceases

Doubt ceases

When all is known as I !

Self alone is free and eternal

The rest mere Imagination !

Dream empowered by Mind

Where Mind is the only Verity !

The world exists and is not

It is Self seen through Mind !

The Wise do not even speak

As the Highest Wisdom is Silence !

His mind is vacant

As it rests on Self !

Desires do not arise

In his tranquil mind !

Unattached to the mundane

Dwelling in the supra-mundane

He sees all alike

In the Sky of Consciousness !

Consciousness relative troubles him not

The Consciousness which sees Duality

All this Duality is Cosmic Illusion

The Only Reality is Self Absolute !
