Even without knowing God, one can present God.
Over time, God too has evolved. The more advanced the age became, the more advanced God became — although this might sound strange, it is indeed the truth. Humanity’s understanding of God has gradually changed, and His message has continued to spread. This idea of God has always been your own creation — a manifestation of your imagination, nothing more. The concept of God has always transformed over time, and with it, the inner truth has gradually revealed itself.
You forget the evolution of time — and this is your greatest mistake. You must understand that alongside time, the human brain, society, and structure of life also evolve.
This evolution affects not just your personal life, but all religions as well.
By denying the progression of time, you will never be able to harmonize anything. You’ve made the mistake of measuring the present with the yardsticks of the past. Trying to compare today’s culture with that of five thousand or fourteen hundred years ago is pure ignorance. Remember, the ideals you follow today are also subject to future evolution — so, you must not impose your current ideals on others. If that era does not accept your ideals, then there's nothing you can do about it.
Remember: your ideals can only guide the present — not the past or future.
If you try to judge the past and future with present ideals, your ideals will not survive.
Everyone must be judged by the standards of their own era.
You are trying to judge Krishna through Jesus, Buddha through Krishna, and everyone through Muhammad. This is your ignorance — and because of it, people are now divided.
You cannot accept that each person has their own ideals, and each era shaped them accordingly. Muslims judge the deities of Sanatan Dharma through the lens of their angels, thus rejecting those deities.
If you didn't judge others' intentions through your own standards, you wouldn't reject anyone else's purpose.
You make the same mistake when it comes to worship.
Just because you worship in a mosque, you assume worship in a temple is "shirk" (polytheism).
Because you don’t go to shrines, you declare them places of heresy.
This is where you're using your ideology and intent as the measure for others.
Similarly, atheists also go to the extreme — they question the actions of Jesus, Krishna, Muhammad, and Buddha from ancient times with today’s logic, forgetting that every ideology transforms with time.
If you look closely, you’ll see that you now mock ancient beliefs in gods and goddesses — and perhaps rightfully so.
But in the same way, those who come in the future with even greater ideas will mock your current beliefs too.
The same mistake is seen in spirituality.
Spiritual gurus expect their disciples to show the same level of sacrifice as ancient disciples, and the disciples expect modern gurus to live like sages of the past.
They too struggle to accept the evolution of time.
The truth is, with the turn of time, even gods and goddesses have evolved — and so has the idea of God.
I believe it is essential for the founders of every religion to be aware of this evolution.
If they are not willing to recognize this evolution, they should not be founders of any religion — because by preaching ancient rules in the modern world, they expose their own religion to mockery and criticism.
I’m not telling you to become a religious fanatic —
Because you can be deeply religious without being a fanatic.
You can love God without ever uttering His name.
You can be a greater believer even while openly acknowledging disbelief in God.
Here, I am not asking you to be either theist or atheist.
What I’m saying is: you don’t have to be either.
Instead, become a seeker.
To truly seek, you must not be bound by either theism or atheism.
You must become completely empty — open to everything and attached to nothing.
Only then can you become a true seeker.
Everyone follows one of two paths: good or evil, theist or atheist.
But no one walks a third path — and no one suggests it.
I’m telling you: walk the third path.
Because that path can make you great.
And this path of seeking is what can transform you into God.
The evolution of time can never stop a true seeker.
— Buddha, Muhammad, Krishna
