 SURE RECIPE FOR WORLD PEACE : 2. - SRI SWAMI SIVANANDA

Religion is focussed into various institutional modes that are diverse in accordance with the historical, cultural and psychological backgrounds of the peoples of the world. But religion cannot merely be a set of scriptural injunctions on rituals and conventions, which must always be subservient to the cultivation of a universal consciousness, in the light of the practical realisation of one's relation to God and the universe.

It is true that allegiance to some belief and observance of some rituals could be termed practice of a particular religion, but if these do not lead to a harmonious self-development and the dawn of divine consciousness, their purpose is of no great importance for the individual.

The pivot of religion is a perfect ethical life, with an abiding faith in the existence of a common, all-pervading, sustaining, governing and unifying Spirit, through the realisation of which one comes to really know oneself and all.

Practice of religion is the practice of righteousness, goodness, justice, truth, love and purity. The righteous man is the truly religious man. One may meticulously perform religious devotions, and yet be very irreligious at heart and in conduct. The cruel and the untruthful can never be religious.

The ringing notes of religion are: be good, do good, be pure, be kind, be compassionate, serve all, love all, and see God in all. These precepts alone will awaken man to the consciousness of the unity of existence and the realisation of the divine Spirit, within and without.

Religion loses its basic purpose if it does not aim at Self-realisation, if it does not bind man to the cosmic whole, and enable him to act in the light of his understanding that he is a part of the whole, is governed by the fundamental law of cause and effect, and is trying to fulfil the common, ultimate purpose of the various living components of the whole as his underlying objective behind all his routine and specific endeavours.

If one is able to attain this basic realisation, then whatever one does will be performed as Karma Yoga, selfishness having been completely rooted out from the heart. All actions would then indirectly help and complement one's efforts for spiritual unfoldment.

Practice of religion puts one in consonance with the law of truth and love, which alone would show one the way to the attainment of all that is noble and good. Religion should be a living experience in the life of man. Unless the heart opens up, and is purified and enlightened with the bright rays of knowledge and experience, unless the soul is imbued with a suffusing love for the entire creation of God, unless one is ready to sacrifice one's little self and willingly offer to serve the needy, console the distressed, cheer up the depressed, give hope to the forlorn, unless one is able to effect these, there is no use of calling oneself a religious man.
