What are the merits Universal religion established by You?

Shri Hrushikesh asked: What are the merits Universal religion established by You?

Swami replied: The world peace is disturbed by the differences between the religions. The correlation between the religions will bring unity and peace, which is the main aim of universal religion. Universal religion is not a different religion. It is only a correlated concept of all the religions to bind these bringing unity and peace. It is like the central government in India. All the religions are like state governments. Every citizen belongs to the state and to the center simultaneously. A human being in this country is called as Andhra because it belongs to the state called as Andhra Pradesh.

It is simultaneously the Indian also belonging to the central government of India. One need not leave the religion followed by him or her to enter the Universal religion, which contains the merits of all religions. The merit of science and atheism (atheism is also considered as one of the 6 spiritual schools by sage Vidyaaranya) is the application of logical analysis to the items of creation to prove that these items are parts of creation only so that misunderstanding anyone of these as God can be rejected. For example, awareness is proved as an item of imaginable creation and hence is not unimaginable God. Charvaka, the founder of atheism says that awareness is produced by the digestion of food (Madashaktih jaayate). You must accept a good concept spoken by even a bad person and conclude that imaginable awareness is not unimaginable God. The merit from Hinduism is the spiritual knowledge concluded by sharp analysis, which avoids the exploitation of mind by misinterpretations of the scripture (Jnaana yoga). The merit from Islam is the emotional devotion and faith of mind in God with firmness (Bhakti yoga).The merit of Christianity is sacrifice of work and fruit of work in the divine service (Karma yoga). The merit from Buddhism is eradication of desire for any fruit from God so that prostitutional devotion and business devotion are avoided (Nishkaama karma yoga), which is the karma yoga transformed into Nishkaama karma yoga.

The splits between religions come due to the difference in the media of God. The underlying Unimaginable God in all these specific media of all specific religions is one and the same. When one fixes in a specific imaginable item of creation as God (which is actually one of the media of Unimaginable God), this difference comes because there is plurality in the items (media) of imaginable creation. The unimaginable God must be one only because any number of unimaginable items become only one unimaginable item. The Universal religion is based on this one Unimaginable God, which brings unity in all the religions regarding God. Similarly, the basic contents of the scriptures of all religions are one and the same. Hence, any person of any religion can have simultaneous registration in the Universal religion without leaving the religion already followed by him/her. This is the need of the hour in this present world to bring peace and love between all the human beings of the world.
