History reminds us that brutal and bloody wars fought in the name of religions betray the spirit of the doctrines they claim to defend: Calls to love, to extend mercy, to refrain from killing. In every tradition there are kind-hearted people who embody compassion, and yet there are always others who place cruelty, violence and superiority at the centre of their beliefs.
Perhaps the true path to the Divine lies not in rigid dogma or blind obedience to man-made doctrines, but in cultivating a direct, personal relationship with Source. When we turn away from the flawed doctrines of the middle men, a pure connection to cosmic consciousness based on authenticity, humility, co-operation and love can emerge.
