How unity is possible in the light of
Geetha,
Bible, Quran.
People are different but HUMANITY IS ONE.Holy books are different but their MESSAGE IS ONE.Religions are different but DHARMA IS ONE.
In the name of the
creator, the Almighty God
We are thankful to
all those who have received this pamphlet and we hope that you shall spend your
valuable time to read and understand it. Actually this is a small effort to
solve two main problems that are prevailing in the present society i.e., “Disunity”
and “Immorality”.
The spectacular
development in the fields of science and technology has changed the life style
of man. Nothing is happening as in the past. Man is doing everything with
wisdom and clarity. He is able to save energy and money along with time by
estimating the pros and cons of any work he is doing.
Man is able to fly
like a bird in the sky and swim like a fish in water but unfortunately he is
not able to live like a human being on earth. The reason is a man who wants
clarity in everything, is not behaving logically in the matter of God &
Religion instead he is behaving blindly with sentiments. That is why in these
days, a business with a turnover of some cores of rupees is going on in the
name of the three-lettered word called “GOD”. Moreover he is losing his
energy, money & valuable time under this influence. Wherever you see,
temples are getting full with worshippers, the number of churches is increasing
day-by-day and mosques are filling up, but in devotees moral values, peace and
purushardha siddhi (completeness) are missing.
In addition to that, in the present society
people are living with unity in all aspects but in the matter of religion, it
has been divided into many religious sections. Castes have been divided into
sub-castes and all are having different concepts about God. For example in
Hindu society some believe that God is one, some believe that He has 10 forms while
some other propose Dwaitha, Adwaitha, and Visistadwaitha etc. Similarly, in the
Christian society some believe that “Yehova” is the real creator & Unique God
and some believe in trinity. And in the Muslim society some people believe that
only Allah is omnipotent while the others believe that some powers are with
auliyas (noble people).
But no sect is
using their intellect or Holy books to get a clear concept of God. Ironically
every religion, every denomination, every sect declares that their concept of
God is right and that of other’s is wrong. This type of intolerant propaganda is
leading to religious riots in the society. And eventually unity and morality
are lacking in the people. More over day-by-day the number of gods is increasing because we have developed
a feeling of one god for a religion, another god for a caste, a god for a
country, a god for a state, a god for a district, a god for a region etc. in
this situation, man is not able to identify the real God. Observing all these
things some people are in a dilemma whether the God really exists or not. So
just like we seek clarity in everything let us seek clarity in the concept of
God with the help of the scriptures, VEDAS, UPANISHADS, and GEETHA, BIBLE,
QURAN. Let us inculcate the same clear concept of God which the holy scriptures
are declaring.
If we really use our intellect to
think, nothing can come into existence without its creator, right? Then how did
the earth, the sky, the moon and other planets come into existence without a
creator? And the creator should be only one for a system to run smoothly. The
creator of this universe might also be only one because the system of the
universe is running smoothly. If the creator/s had been two or, more than two,
one would command for a bright day and the other would order for rain. One
would argue that the sun should rise from the east and the other would demand
that should rise from west. Instead of one creator if there are many, then the
system of this universe would have been shattered. Our scriptures are
confirming this point.
GOD IS ONE
Dwawa
bhoomi janayan deva ekaha.
God is
one, who created the heavens and the earth. (Shwethashwetharav
Upanishad 3:3)
Aham
sarvasya prabhvo mathtaha sarvam pravarthathe.
I am
responsible for the production of this creation- because of me, the
whole system is moving. (Bhagavad Geetha
10:8)
God
is one. To make someone equal to Him, there is not a second
one, third one or fourth one there is not a fifth one or sixth one or seventh
one or eighth one or ninth one or tenth one. He is one and only one. (Atharvana
Veda 13:14:16-21)
This
is what the Lord says- your Redeemer who formed you in the womb. I am
the Lord the Maker of all things, who stretched out the heavens alone.
Who spread out the earth. (Bible-Isaiah
44:24)
And
call no man your father (God) on earth, for you have one father (one
God), who is in heaven. (Bible-Mathew
23:9)
Know
that there is no god except the one real God. (Bible-1 Corinthians 8:4)
And
your God is the One God. There is no deity except Him, the most
Gracious, the Dispenser of Grace. (Quran
2:163)
This
is Allah, your Lord. There is no deity but He, the Creator of everything. So
serve him and worship him alone. He is the guardian of everything. (Quran
6:102)
Had
there been within the heavens and earth gods besides Allah, they both would
have (heavens and the earth) shattered. (Quran
21:22)
In this way, all our Holy Scriptures
reveal that out God is One. That one God is called Sarweswara in Vedas, Yehova
in Bible, and Allah in the Quran. His identity does not change just
because the language changes. For example, water is called pani in Urdu, neeru
in Telugu and Tanni in Tamil. But its quality does not change as the language
changes. In the same way the identity of God does not change though He is
called by different names in different languages. This same thing is conveyed
in Vedas as
“Ekam sath vipprah bahuda vadanthi”
God is one.
Scholars call Him by different names.
Therefore there are no different
gods in Geetha, Bible, and Quran. One God is introduced by different names in
different languages. Hence it is clear from our scriptures and by our intellect
that God is one and He is called by different names.
The same message
was delivered in different eras, different regions to different sects of people
by many noble rishis, sages and prophets. The relation one should maintain with
them is clearly mentioned in our Holy Scriptures.
Relation with Noble Rishis
Krishnam vande
jagadgurum
Sri Krishna is a
guru (teacher) to the world.
(Bhagavadgita first page)
And don’t let you
be called teacher. Christ is your only teacher- (Mathew 23:9, 10)
Prophet Mohammad(s)
is an ideal to you. He is your teacher (Quran 33:21) (Hadees)
It is clear by the above statements
that we should follow holy people (sages and prophets) as teachers and know
their message. It means, just like a student taking his teacher as an ideal, we
should also believe the holy people as our teachers to follow and implement their
message.
Message given by the Holy people
Sri Krishna says
in Geetha (18:62)
“Thwameva saranam Gachcha sarva
bhavena bharatha;
O Arjun! In every way you ask for
the refuge of the Lord only.
Jesus Christ says
in the Bible.
“O
Israel listen! Our God, thy Lord is one. Love the Lord your God with all your
heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and all your strength. This
is the greatest commandment”.
(Mark 12:29-31)
“But
when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your father, who
is unseen.
(Mathew 6:6)
Prophet
Mohammad (pbuh) says in the Quran.
“O
mankind! Worship your Lord, who created you and those before you, that you may
be protected”
(Quran 2:21)
Sri
Saibaba says in sai-leelamrutham,
“Sabka
malik ek hi” God is one for all.
From the above statements, we come
to know that the holy people are to be followed as teachers and according to
their preaching; only one God is to be worshipped.
At the end, the clearly stated
things through this pamphlet are that God is one for all. He is called by
different names in different languages. This was the only message given by our
teachers Sri Krishna, Jesus Christ, Mohammad (pbuh) and Sri Sai Baba.
Almighty God has promised that
whoever worships the one and only God and preaches the same to others will be
given health, wealth and peace in this world and salvation in the world
hereafter.
By understanding this message, we
can develop a broad mind towards our fellow human beings, hatred towards each
other will be perished and unity with brotherhood shall prevail in the society.
So it is our responsibility to follow and propagate this message.
