Adjectives like Hindu, Muslim, Christian become political flags that breed ego, bondage, division, and bloodshed, shrinking human vastness into cramped cells. Organized creeds multiply darkness with rules and identities; his “sharp blade” cuts these fetters to burst bubbles and free the light of authentic spirituality in each person.
He opposes organized labels and rules that divide people so we can be free to find our own inner spirituality.
