What is the greatest threat to peace and harmony in the world today? Bhagawan gives us an important reminder today that each one of us can become emissaries of peace.
"No quarter should be given for propaganda which sets up one religion against another. All the diverse communities in the nation should be united. Mankind should become one family. The world will then become a paradise. If differences are allowed to grow, the nation will disintegrate.
It is said that atom bombs will reduce the world to ashes. But those who are promoting religious bigotry and hatred are doing damage worse than what atom bombs can do. They are destroying love and compassion in human hearts. They are breaking up mankind into fragments. There is no greater sin than this.
What the world needs today is the redeeming and unifying force of love, love which continually expands and embraces more and more people. By giving up narrow ideas regarding one’s religion, nation or caste, by developing a broad outlook and cultivating the company of the good, you can elevate your life and make it meaningful and satisfying."
~ Sri Sathya Sai Baba ~
(Divine Discourse - December 25, 1985)
All religions, all scriptures, all spiritual teachings point only to one truth: the unity of divinity. – BABA
