The past present and future belongs to the form, time and space.+

Religion belongs to the world of emotions. That is why everyone likes it. You will always find it in primitive times, as now, linked with music, dancing, and art--both emotional expressions.

Religion changes as it appeals to different emotions. You will find at one pole the nude monk is admired; at the other, the gorgeously-dressed Guru is revered.  

In matters of religion, Gnanis has no quarrel with anyone because religion is different from spirituality or Adyatma.

The craving for religion, the fear that not following its rites and dogmas will bring punishment, and the inability to give up the notion of its truth even when your reason demonstrates its fallacies and absurdities are merely forms of mild obsessions, i.e. a thought constantly repeating itself automatically; hence it is a mental disease.

Unless you give up the ideas of heaven and hell, Advaitic wisdom is impossible. The ultimate truth must be proved here and now, in this very life. If that cannot be done, then it cannot consider any such idea, as the existence of heaven and hell as untrue.

Religious people hold their inherited beliefs and any images they like in that realm. For in religion, the question of truth does not arise, only the question of what appears to one. :~Santthosh Kumaar
