Unity is the goal and uniformity the means to reach that goal
but often the means has obscured the purpose

All through the ages the different religions, which have been given to man for his spiritual development with the sole idea of unity, have gradually become a kind of community or nationality

The scriptures given to the Jews, Christians, Hindus, Buddhists, Parsis and Muslims  all have as their central truth the message of UNITY 

But man has been so interested and absorbed in the poetry of these scriptures that he has forgotten their inner voice

If only we would recognize the inner voice, we would see that the different scriptures all contain words spoken by one and the same voice 

Some hear the voice, others only hear the words, just as in nature some see only the branches and others the roots of the tree

but all these different scriptures and ways of worship and contemplating God are given for one purpose

The realization of unity
In unity resides the happiness and illumination of man
and his guidance in life
