Basics in All the Religions are the Same

Basics in all the religions are the same
Dalip Singh Wasan, Advocate.

The people who could conduct a survey of principles contained in all the religious books in the world have come to know that all the religions are having the same concepts about God. All the religions have admitted that there is one God. All the religions have accepted that all the people on this earth had been sent by God and while sending them on this earth God Himself wrote their luck and destiny and they enjoy and suffer as per these entries in luck and destiny and when the time prescribed is over the man is called back and then he is liable to give all his accounts before God and if his record is good he is sent to Heaven and if the record is bad, he is sent to Hell. All the religions believe that God never takes His birth nor He ever dies. All the religions believe that God is Omnipotent and Omnipresent and we cannot conceal anything from Him. All the religions believe that God sends some people to give guidance to this man and this rehearsal is repeated at the prescribed intervals.
People in all the religions believe that the people who enjoy life are availing of the benefits of their good work either in this life or in such a life in the past and the people who suffer are those who had not been good people either in this life or such a life in the past. All the religions are guiding us that we should suffer and do not make a complaint before God because God is giving us punishment and when we enjoy, we must believe that God is awarding us. They say that after each suffering, we face a happy occasion and after each happy occasion, we have to face a hard time. When we are suffering, our good days are standing at our doors and they shall be knocking very soon and we should wait for those good times. We have been told that all pairs are decided in Heaven and we just celebrate marriages on this earth. All the religions are telling us that we should lead a clean life and we should be truthful, sincere, faithful and we should not be a criminal, sinner or a person who commits misconducts. All the religions are advising us that we should live on this earth like members of one family because we are children of the same God and since we are placed at different places on this earth, therefore, the names and styles of our religions are different. Otherwise all the religions are giving us the same principles of life and if we follow those principles we shall lead a happy and prosperous life and we are on the wrong path we shall suffer.
We must be sorry to note that all the religious concepts and principles laid down for our guidance had been mis-interpreted by the man on this earth and that has been the reason that the man on this earth had been divided on the basis of different religions and they had been fighting just to establish that their religion had been good or better than the other. It is on record that they had been killing people in other religions or they had been trying to convert others to the fold of their own religion. All bad records are before us and therefore, we must admit that we had been in the wrong throughout in history and therefore, time has come when we should come on the right path because in this period of science and technology, if we fight, we shall destroy this whole earth. We should remain in peace and we should try to utilize all these blessings which science and technology are bring for use and we must try to establish Heaven on this earth. We must try to understand that all these fights amongst the religions shall destroy this earth which shall mean that whatever we have achieved in the past shall go out of our hands and we shall have to start once again from the stone age. We should go ahead and we should not go back. All this terrorism, all this imperialism, all these riots, all these wars are futile exercises and we must stop and concentrate on our development through the use of science and technology which have come to our hands.
