God is one

This is a poem which is about unifying people of all religions....

Hindus celebrate Diwali ,

Muslims celebrate Id , 

Christians celebrate Christmas , 

But yet,

God is one.

                                                                            Vishakha worships Krishna , 

                                                                            Shazia worships Allah , 

                                                                            Emily worships Jesus ,

                                                                            But yet , 

                                                                             God is one.

Hindus go to Varanasi , 

Muslims go to Mecca Madina , 

Christians go to Jerusalem , 

But yet , 

God is one.

                                                                          Hindus visit Temple , 

                                                                           Muslims visit Mosque , 

                                                                           Christians visit Church , 

                                                                          But yet , 

                                                                          God is one.

God made all humans one ,

Religions were our creations,

Greatest religion is only one , 

and that is none other than humanity.

But yet , 

God is one.

                                                                       Greatest service is service to humanity , 

                                                                        Greatest work is striving for others ,

                                                                        Greatest religion is humanity , 

                                                                        and so , 

                                                                        God is one.

Let us forget all our differences , 

based on religion , caste or nation.

Have just one religion in mind , 

and that is humanity , 

and say together , 

God is one..........

Amen my friend.

Look online for George Harrison's ---- My sweet Lord----- Not until the end does he reveal his Lord by name. But as your words suggest, we're one big family in the same big blue boat.

Very big hit all around the world, excellent Sitar playing.

This is a wonderful philosophy dear Ridhi, for a 17 years old you have deep understanding of what divinity means. World would be a wonderful place if people follow your understanding.

[Riddhi]

Thank you..You are really kind...Thanks for your review again..

[Mrudula Rani]

You are most welcome.

[Onlyme]

Nicely expressed and humanity is one. But sadly thou humanity is a dying compassion to some humans on this planet. But the sentiments where beautiful felt.

[Riddhi]

Thank you..And you are true ...Actually humanity is a dying compassion to some humans..

[Onlyme]

It is my dear. That is what breaks my heart. That humanity is getting old fashioned and no one cares.About each other anymore.

[Riddhi]

Yes..You are absolutely right..

[Onlyme]

Look forward to reading more from you riddhi in the future.

[Riddhi]

I am also excited to read your writings and also excited in reading your reviews for my writings..

[Onlyme]

I am just me. Just an average human being. But thank you for the compliment.

[Riddhi]

I like the person who behave as their true self just like you because i am also among one of them ...

[Donna]

That was beautifully written and a great message for everyone. There are so many different religions, but we all believe pretty much the same thing. Though we may be different, we all want the same thing in this life.

[Riddhi]

I am really happy to know that you agree with me and you liked my poem...Thanks for your review..

I like the poem simple and amazing ....at the end you have good message...
My opinion about Hinduism is different I am not a really religious person.
Hinduism has 3 gods which are consider to be on the top which is Brahama,Vishnu and Shiva...and all the 33millon or billion gods are reincarnation of them...each had reincarnation had is purpose which can not to be compare to the gods...Hinduism denies the concept of one god because of this...which makes is it unique..though there purpose can be very similar but sure not one....western mythology is about one god. I hope I was helpful.

[Riddhi]

Thanks for your review..actually each person has his own personal opinion on everything and i am glad to hear one from you too...

[Akash gaikwad]

Yup everyone has their own truth of opinion thinking their truth of opinion is the only truth. Thanks for hearing my opinion.
