Which Religion is Best ?

 

For me nature is god, but let's not get into this argument about what is a god or to whom we call God, rather this post is about how every religion is trying to reach god. 

If you see in the above picture, in the centre there is a star and on the outer circle, there are four different colour points, all four points are at the same distance from the Star. 

Now let's think of these four colour dots as the four major religions in the world and star as God. If you walk from any religion towards God, you will reach God, which will be the shortest path. every religion can take you to god because this is how it became a religion, someone walked into that religious path and reached the god and told others that you can too find the god if you will follow this path. Take the example of any religion, there is always a person who found the god and told others to follow it, so it can take others to god.  Jesus, Mohammad, Raam or Guru Nanak all found god in their own way and told others about how they found god, which became the religion later.  

So if you are a follower of any religion and you truly want to reach god ( because the main purpose of any religion is to get closer to God and live life according to God's way), you must travel only in the direction toward god.

Now, the problem is,  when these enlightened people told us about their paths and gave us proof of it, we also started believing that this is the only path or religion which is true and interpreted that others' paths are wrong or misguided. 

if you will see the above picture again, you will notice the direction of the blue religion is totally opposite to the yellow religion, direction of red toward the start is totally opposite to green. But even though it's the opposite direction it's not the wrong direction and this is what we are missing completely because when someone says this path is right, we hear "other paths are wrong". 

Another problem is, now every religion want other religion to follow their religion, come all the way from green to red, yellow or blue and start walking toward star from there. you see how long it will be, right?

Instead of walking toward god from our religion, we started stopping others from following their religion. instead of following our path, we stopped others from following the path they wanted to flow. Instead of giving meaning to our lives, we started taking others' life. Do you know why? It's easy, it's always easy to destroy something than create. but by doing this you will never reach to god because you will also be going on the circle and not toward god.  

In fact, the people who are stopping others and telling your religion or belief is not correct, are not religious people at all. They don't want to reach God, who reaches anywhere running in a circle?  But they are clever, they found this formula to fool the world that they are a  super religious person, Because if you stop something or someone which you believe is wrong, you automatically become right. so by messing up with other religions you get the super religious person label automatically. 

Now many individuals from every religion are doing this work day and night. Most of them are on social media writing against each other’s, some are burning temples, mosques and churches, few are holding AK-47 and crossing borders.
