"By whatsoever path you come to Me I shall welcome you, for the paths men take from every side are Mine." Sri Krishna

Look at every path closely and deliberately, then ask ourselves this crucial question: Does this path have a heart? If it does, then the path is good. If it doesn't, it is of no use.
Carlos Castaneda

All is of use when we see it through positive eyes. Every negative situation provides a wonderful opportunity for positive change. For everything is perfect in Gods domain.

Sometimes we can choose to walk down a path just to discover how not to do it, so that we can share this wisdom of experience with others, all has an important reason for being and of great value when we value everything.

Love beyond measure

God created all these paths and roads, sayings and quotes,God even made every tiny little thing you can think of and God will never leave us.
Maitreya is a new path, that is all i am saying. There is nothing left out of the Eternal Divine Path all those other paths are in it.
Something we are missing here is the state of the world.

When you think about it the idea of using parts of all religions is not new. Many religions have their roots in other religions. I think looking at all religions is the new consciousness of mankind and isn't attributed to the finding of one person. The poets have been the harbingers of new consciousness throughout history. Much of religion is poetry.

Actually, I think they are all the same path. We just see different waymarkers, lightposts, along the way.

How many different ways has the Golden Rule been said in how many different religions?

One Path, One destination.

And one must account for the prophetic relationships of one religion for another. There are obvious problems with doing this - prior religions ultimately reject the interpritations of prophecies later religions apply, and sometimes religionists might be a bit enthusiastic in their interpritations.

Inaddition to the prophetic relationships there are statements in the scriptures, some of which are corrective, of the prior religion.

Is this indicative of diverse religions? Well we do have diverse names and Books to account for. Are they clearly the same religion? From God's pov all things are possible. Perhaps we can find some room inbetween for more than supposing religions happen to have occasional similarities.
