Mysticism

All religious forms (known as "religions") are precious stones strung on the golden thread of Divinity.

Religious forms preserve eternal values; false religions don’t exist.  It is not wise to say or to believe that “the neighbor’s religion is useless and that only ours is authentic.”  If the neighbor’s religion is perceived as "useless", then ours can also be perceived as "useless" because the values are always the same.

We cannot discredit the religion of others without also discrediting ours, because the principles are always the same.

Under the sun, every religious form is born, grows, develops, multiplies into many sects, and dies.  This is how it has always been and this is how it will always be.

Religious principles never die.  Religious forms can die, but religious principles, in other words, eternal values, never die.  These continue, robing themselves with new forms.

 There are profoundly religious men who do not belong to any religion.
