Where God is, there is no other. Where the world is, there is no God. These two will never unite. Like light and darkness. That is what I have understood from Christianity and the life of Jesus. Isn't that also Buddhism? Isn't that Hinduism? Isn't that Islam? Isn't that the teaching of all the great sages and teachers?

Celebration of Durgasthami Puja
Vedanta is based on the Vedas - one of the most sacred and ancient scriptures of the Hindus. It is a system of philosophy which is based on the idea that all reality is a single principle, Brahman (God), and teaches that the believer's goal is to transcend the limitations of self-identity and realize one's unity with Brahman. It is not based on the life and teachings of any one particular saint or prophet. It is a federation of faiths and a commonwealth of spiritual concepts.
Every religion teaches man to fill his being with the glory of God and to transcend pettiness and selfishness. It trains him in the methods of unattachment and discernment, so that he may aim high and attain spiritual perfection.
