No one form of religion will do for all. Each is a pearl on a string. We must be particular above all else to find individuality in each. No man is born to any religion. Any system which seeks to destroy individuality is in the long run disastrous. Each life has a current running through it, and this current will eventually take it to God. The end and aim of all religion is to realize God. The greatest of all training is to worship God alone. If each man chose his own ideal and stuck to it, religious controversy would vanish.
Experience is the first teacher we have, the only source of knowledge. In the world, religion is the only science where there is no surety, because it is not taught as a science of religion. This should not be. Religion deals with the truth of the metaphysical world just as chemistry and other natural sciences deal with the truth of the physical world.
All science has its particular methods; so has the science of religion. The human mind is not homogeneous like the external world. According to the different nature, there must be different methods. As some special sense predominates in a person – one person will see most, another will hear most – so there is a predominant mental sense; and through this gate each must reach his own mind. Yet through all minds runs a unity, and there is a science which may be applied to all. This science of religion is based on the analysis of the human soul. It has no creed.
The moment you think creed and form and ceremony the “be-all” and “end-all,” then you are in bondage. Take part in them to help others but take care they do not become a bondage. Religion is one but its application must be various.
Let each one, therefore, give his message; but not find defect in other religions. You must come out from all form if you would see the light. Drink deep of the nectar of the knowledge of God. Go forth into the Eternal and come back with eternal energy.
