Truth In All Religions

We believe there is truth in all religions, and the Hindu bows down to them all; for in this world, truth is to be found not in subtraction, but in addition. We would offer God a bouquet of the most beautiful flowers of all the diverse faiths. We love God for love's sake, not for the hope of reward. We do our duty for duty's sake, not for the hope of reward. We worship the beautiful for beauty's sake, not for the hope of reward. Thus in the purity of our hearts shall we see God. Sacrifices, dogma, mumblings, and mutterings are not religion. They are only good if they stimulate us to lift our thoughts to the apprehension of the Divine Perfection, and our hearts to the brave performances of beautiful and heroic deeds.
