What is the idea of God in heaven? Materialism.
The Vedantic idea is the infinite principle of God embodied in every one of us.
God sitting all right, but when grown-up men try to teach such things, it is downright disgusting — that is what it is.
It is all matter, all body idea, the gross idea, the sense idea.
Every bit of it up on a cloud!
Think of the utter blasphemy of it!
It is materialism — downright materialism.
When babies think this way, it may be is clay and nothing but clay. Is that religion?
It is no more religion than is the Mumbo Jumbo "religion" of Africa.
God is spirit and He should be worshipped in spirit and in truth.
Does spirit live only in heaven?
What is spirit?
We are all spirit.
Why is it we do not realise it?
What makes you different from me?
Body and nothing else. Forget the body, and all is spirit.

These are what Vedanta has not to give. No book. No man to be singled out from the rest of mankind — "You are worms, and we are the Lord God!" — none of that. If you are the Lord God, I also am the Lord God. So Vedanta knows no sin. There are mistakes but no sin; and in the long run everything is going to be all right. No Satan — none of this nonsense. Vedanta believes in only one sin, only one in the world, and it is this: the moment you think you are a sinner or anybody is a sinner, that is sin. From that follows every other mistake or what is usually called sin. There have been many mistakes in our lives. But we are going on. Glory be unto us that we have made mistakes! Take a long look at your past life. If your present condition is good, it has been caused by all the past mistakes as well as successes. Glory be unto success! Glory be unto mistakes! Do not look back upon what has been done. Go ahead!

You see, Vedanta proposes no sin nor sinner.
No God to be afraid of. He is the one being of whom we shall never be afraid, because He is our own Self.
There is only one being of whom you cannot possibly be afraid; He is that. Then is not he really the most superstitious person who has fear of God?
There may be someone who is afraid of his shadow; but even he is not afraid of himself. God is man's very Self. He is that one being whom you can never possibly fear. What is all this nonsense, the fear of the Lord entering into a man, making him tremble and so on? Lord bless us that we are not all in the lunatic asylum!
But if most of us are not lunatics, why should we invent such ideas as fear of God? Lord Buddha said that the whole human race is lunatic, more or less. It is perfectly true, it seems.

Respected family members of this great holy Nation.

VERY IMPORTANT FOR THE PRESENT DAY WORLD, PARENTS, TEACHERS, CHILDREN, YOUTH AND GOVERNMENTS :
1. MANUSHYA JANMAM ( TAKING BIRTH AS HUMAN BEING ) IS SACRED, BECAUSE OF GOOD KARMA DONE PREVIOUS BIRTH;
2. SO IT IS THE DUTY OF ALL HUMAN BEINGS TO FOLLOW RIGHTEOUS LIFE, AND PRACTICE TRUTH ..
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*Islam is becoming more and more violent, cheating the vulnerable citizens in the societies / world communities, and forcible conversions by trapping men and women in particular by way of love jihads, terror groups make islam a tool to act at will of their choice, in as many countries, the major so called super powers, with veto the horrible tool to disrupt the UNITED NATIONS DECISIONS, by taking sides of good terror; others helpless, are silent spectators, leading the world into catastrophe;
*Christianity is totally decaying, as FALSE PROPAGANDA, could not achieve any results now as before; no one respects the priest class because of their royal life and their worst low moral standards plus corruptions, sexual rackets with nuns and weaker sections of societies; followed by cheating and conversions by false promises; amassing wealth by corruption; fraud land dealings, etc; -- ( on in the poor / developing countries;

NOTE :
1. Materialistic civilisation has made man insincere and untruthful. Ruthless, the ship of human is heading fast towards the rock of self-aggrandisement, hatred, aimless living, and eventually self-destruction. The present day world is full of fear, suspicion, crimes, and conflicts, quarrels and struggles. The real ideal religion is forgotten, the spirit of religion is lost, and only a poor external structure remains. Evolve a deeper insight and express it in life.
2. THE FOOLISH MUSLIMS AND CHRISTIANS MUST KEEP IN MIND AND AGREE THIS ETERNAL TRUTH ( SANATANA DHARMAM OF BHARATHAM ) AND REFORM THEMSELVES ……….
3. “He who says he is different from others, even by a hair's breadth, immediately becomes miserable. Happiness belongs to him who knows this oneness, who knows he is one with this universe.”
