Unity in Diversity

 
Whether we pray in a temple or a mosque, we will all realize that each person, irrespective of the religion into which he or she was born, is praying to one God. We will recognize that God is one, whether he is called God, Allah, Jehovah, Wahiguru, Parmatma, the Oversoul, the creative power of the universe, or any other name. We will see unity in the diversity of life. It will not matter to us whether someone is Hindu or Muslim, Sikh or Jain, Christian or Jewish, Buddhist or Parsi. We will recognize God’s Light in each being, whether their outer skin is black, white, or tan. We will know that God resides in every person, whether born in Asia, Africa, Australia, Europe, North America or South America. We will realize that the same Light of God is in each of them. We will appreciate the differences caused by tradition and cultures, but realize there is a unity in all living beings.
