Bridging gaps with love and new mindset

Every individual is born into an environment their parents found themselves. Individually, we were born with nothing in our heads. We have no mindset. We have no thoughts. We were like empty bottles. The moment we started to grow up and develop gradually within our individual environments, we developed and conceived also thoughts bit by bit. They became solidified and formed part of us as we grew. Now, we have a way of thinking and automatically respond to issues that confront us based on how we think. This is called mindset.
We respond to situations based on what we have in stored of us. What you learn from the beginning as right or wrong, good or bad, love or hatred, joy or sadness, is what you know to be real, and it is that which constitute your mindset. In fact, that is who you are. That is, a man is whatever he thinks within. Whatever he believes. In view of this, we all have different mindsets all together. What one considers right in his environment might be wrong in another man's environment. Allegorically, one man's food is another man's poison. This is why some had gone to an extent to say nothing is real.
Be that as it may, there are certain universal principles that when missing from teachings, philosophies or practices, people or society begins to assign question marks to such teachings - the principle of LOVE
Basically, religion is a set of rules and rituals made by mankind which was supposed to help and guide people to attain spirituality in its pure and original form. What is its pure and original form? On the principle of LOVE. Love for fellow mankind. Love for each other. Share the pains of each other. Care for each other.

Religion sought to associate people or society and not to dissociate them. That is why it is not uncommon to hear people saying "freedom of association" than freedom of dissociation, even if they do not want to join or be part of an association anymore. It is not their fault because they were trained to think this way for all this while. On the contrary, religion as we can see has become corrupt, political, divisive and a tool for power struggle. The primary goal is now a mirage. It is gone. It is now kingdom business. Anyway, let's sail together to retrieve the goal.

Come let's go.

Religion is now political because everyone considers his object of worship better than another man's object of worship. This is now like a virus or a cancerous cell invading their teachings and replacing the original context. The principle of love is missing gradually. The truth is no more shared, but sweet deceiving words only to convince people to their religion instead, to the truth. Instead of teaching love, people preach their religion turning pulpits or altars into religious political platforms. Oh! "Where purpose is not known, abuse is indeed inevitable".

Religion is divisive and a tool for power struggle. No Master or Teacher set up a religion. Think of The Christ, Buddha, Krishna or Mohammed. None of them set up a religion. It is wrong to see it in our Religious and Moral Education books that they were founders of various religions. Trust me, they preached their messages to people they came in contact with. In fact, messages built on LOVE principle. They understood God is One and One forever. He is for us ALL, and hence belongs to no individual, group, society, community nor country alone. God, as Buddha said, has no religion.

However, the followers of these Masters, either due to their improper understanding or their own parasitic corrupt interest, diverted every good effort of the Masters into something else. They buried the truth which was supposed to be LOVE, and eventually, causing the poor innocent individuals into vampiers who feed on themselves, instead of expressing divine LOVE towards themselves. Their innate, inherent love has become dormant and the fibre of hatred has become dorminant. What a mess!!!

Ask yourself, why the Sun shines and the rains fall on everyone equally? Is it because of your so called religion? NO
If your religion is God's favourite, then why are you not favoured the more than others? God does not show interest in any religion, beloved. Just let your light of love so shine to glorify Him. That is what HE wants.

A simple clue to guide us ALL, always before you take an action or execute your plans, ask yourself; will I be happy if what I am thinking or about to do, is being done to me?
"Do unto others as you wish they would do unto you". God bless you all.
