Rama, Allah and God are to me convertible terms.

H. G. Wells was not the only one to mention Churchill and Hitler in the same breath: "Churchill and Hitler are striving to change the nature of their respective countrymen by forcing and hammering violent methods on them. Man may be suppressed in this manner but he cannot be changed. Ahimsa [non-violence in the Hindu tradition], on the other hand, can change human nature and sooner than men like Churchill and Hitler."

Nonviolence is not merely a personal virtue. It is also a social virtue to be cultivated like other virtues.

Everything I have personally experienced, and that also has been expressed by the leaders of the great religions points to the fact that a global spirituality already exists and was intrinsically there from the start as God (by whatever name) is one and is indivisible - everywhere outside time and place.

Even as a tree has a single trunk, but many branches and leaves, there is one religion but any number of faiths.

Few men are wantonly wicked.

My own opinion is that just as fundamentally man and woman are one, their problems must be one in essence.
