â€â€¹The purpose of religion was to help humans lead a peaceful life, not to take away life. God/Allah/Ishvar or Hindu/Muslim/Christian are just words - words created by different human minds. Instead of blindly following the outdated ideologies, use your own mind to realize the truth that you are not just a label. You are a living entity - the very manifestation of the energy you call God. Energy has no form or gender, but different languages have created different images, thus leading to discrimination and conflict to an extent that people can kill on name of religion. If a religion causes one to take innocent life, then we don't need a religion. we just need human beings on earth. .Rashmit Kalra
About This Quote
Religion is merely an invention of human minds. It was not created to take life or to stop people from enjoying life. It is merely a mode by which humans can come together and find meaning in their existence. Religion was created to provide direction and purpose for people, not to take away life or to cause conflict.
The word “God” (or “Allah”) is simply a label that has been attached to the concept of energy. Our language has changed over time, and now we have different words for different meanings. For example, the English word “God” originally meant many things, but now it means nothing at all.
If someone asks you what you believe in, you might respond, “I believe in God,” but if someone asks you why you believe in it, you will be lost for words.
