If a
modern religion is to evolve today, how would it be? In my opinion, if a modern
religion is to evolve today, it would be treated like modern Science, with
universality in nature. It would apply to all, irrespective of your culture,
beliefs, creed, geographical location or limited set of holy scriptures. It
would be one for all. Such a religion would be based on logic, practicality in
life and experimentation – not just on beliefs and faith. Such a religion would
be more of a way of life that could enhance peace, harmony and happiness in the
society rather than creating friction.
Such a
religion would encourage openness and would try to embrace all the philosophies
and dogmas related to the spiritual Truth about the Self and the God. Such a
religion would allow free flow of thoughts without the boundaries of beliefs
and faith. Such a religion would encourage
evolution of new philosophies. Such a religion would encourage discussion and
questioning as opposed to just believing. Such a religion would encourage and
respect living Saints or the Scientists of inner world who attempt to explore
the inner world in search of supreme peace and inner happiness.
