2014 January
With the blizzard
raging outside, I am cozily setting myself inside my warm home and reading
a wonderful book: “Through the Mists”. Oh, what a pleasure to read a book so
intriguing and soul inspiring. Here is but one quote from the book and if I had
the space I would have quoted the whole book:
“Which of all the denominations, or religions if you will,
contribute the highest percentage of the redeemed?”
“We recognize but one religion here (note:
here means hereafter), that is – Love; and all its disciples have but one
denomination – lovers of mankind. No one of all the man-made religions holds a
monopoly of this attribute. But earnest and conscientious followers of it may
be found in all.
Its worship is service to humanity;
its litany, noble deed,
its prayers, tears of sympathy;
its sermons, simple lives, known and read of all men;
its songs are lullabies to soothe the broken-hearted;
its faith the immolation of self;
its hope – Heaven.
This is the only religion which can write the passports of heaven for the pilgrims of earth.”
