Normal
Confused ji thanks as always for responding. Your comments have clarified the dialog and unless I have comment I have skipped part of your response as being one for mutual information and understanding.The reason I believe such things matter is that a Christian would as a normal human being would pay greater heed to what another Christian says. A Muslim of a Muslim, a Buddhist of a Buddhist, and so on. So my intent and motive simply is to open however small a door and using this is a catalyst if it happens to work among different faiths.I agree with you about the "founders" saying this about the other faiths but that is water under the bridge. One can solicit after the fact quotes but they were perhaps under no urgency, their choice, to do so at their own times. In SGGS there is partial reference to Islam, Hinduism and may be a bit Buddhism. It has been referenced in other threads.Brother this thread is not about me. My only purpose was to encourage interfaith communication. Through the quotes and some research I am learning of others of course. I do not necessarily call my learning of other faiths as latching on to "ignorance and attachment". Then again I may be wrong.Confused ji I don't have disagreement with your thoughts above. I however do believe that little things can be a catalyst (little affecting much without being impacted) for further study, information, knowledge and understanding. Would this work for all or does it even work with any! Hard for me to say though harder for me to ignore as the effort is limited while benefit could be huge to someone, even if it is of benefit to one to so learn further.Regards.
