Creating organic unity

The word religion is very beautiful, but because of these priests it has fallen into wrong company. The word comes from an origin which means "coming together." But the priests have been doing just the opposite! They are creating splits in man, not oneness. Religion means creating in man ...an organic unity. It has nothing to do with God, it has something to do with you. It has nothing to do with worship, it has something to do with a transformation of your own consciousness. ~ Osho

Respect all religion

(Chorus)
I and I respect all Religion
I and I me pray to the Almighty One
Me give thanks and praise fe the righteous way
But me can't follow...no me can't follow one

(Verse 1)
Me say me look to the Hindu ca me a Indian
Me look to the Muslim and Sikhism
Ina India too much to choose from
Sit down with Sadoo.. Indian holy man
Listen man a talk and me start understand
Go down Africa and me reach a Jam One
Sit down with Rasta and start fe reason
Read out of the bible talk to Christian
When you check it out could a confusion
Religion bring war and contradiction
One god we have one destination
Respect each other and nothing can wrong

(Verse 2)
Me say me learn bout Rama and Hari Krishna
Guru Gobind Singh and the height of Allah
Me look to the East and pray to Mecca
Jesus Christ Christian Messiah
Ina Jerusalem was born the saviour
King Salassi I down a Ethiopia
The conquering lion of the tribe of Judah
Natty Rastafari and me pray to Jah Jah
Me look and me search and me study Buddha
Say nuff mon a talk bout Sai Baba
God bless all mon who fight evil doer
That's why the angels a fan me with the eagles feather

(Verse 3)
Ca me say nuff mon a pray to animal and images
Some kill animal in sacrifices
Say nuff of them a follow demon and witches
Them worship the devil and satanic verses
But I and I no mek fe mek no compromises
Give thanks to the Lord and the highest praises
You spread the good word and bring good wishes
You mix ina evil the highest watches
You clean up your heart and break no promises
Live good with all colour and all races
Overcome tribulation man faces
A me say dust-to-dust and ashes to ashes

Religion and Fear

Religion has survived up to now because of your fear and greed. Of course I mean false religion. True religion has nothing to do with fear and greed. In fact, true religion means transcending fear and greed.

We call religious persons “god-fearing”. Fear has nothing to do with religion at all; fear is anti-religious. Love is religion. Authentic religious person will make you unafraid, fearless; not a slave, not a puppet in the hands of some unknown god, some fiction.

Excerpted from books of Osho

Religion and science

"The third teaching of Bahá'u'lláh is that religion and science are in complete agreement. Every religion, which is not in accordance with established science is superstition. Religion must be with reason, it is superstition without foundation. It is like a mirage, which deceives man by leading him to think it is a body of water.
God has endowed man with reason that he may perceive what is true. If we insist that such a subject is not to be reasoned out and tested according to the established logical modes of the intellect, what is the use if the reason, which god has given to man."
- Abdu'l-Bahá

True to your own nature

Within yourselves

"Religion is not something that the world has to know about. This is something that you have to do within yourselves" - Osho

True nature

Realize your true nature. That is all there is to do. Know yourself as you are—infinite spirit. That is practical religion. Everything else is impractical, for everything else will perish.

The greatest religion is to be true to your own nature. Have faith in yourselves! If you do not exist, how can God or anybody else exist? - Vivekanand
