Be proud to practice your religion and also appreciate others faith
All religions basically have the same spirit; they may differ in form. However, their purpose is none – uniting man with the Creator. Since all religions guide the followers’ footsteps to self-realization, they must be respected and revered.
All people in the world have the right to religion; there can be no coercion used in religious matters. Everyone should be proud of his/her religion; but that does not mean one should disparage other religions. When anyone does so, he/she is actually disparaging God.
Only men/women who have shallow understanding about their religion, don’t appreciate other religions. When one goes quite deep in one’s own religion, one is sure to realize the entire creation is owned by one God only; so one will have a cosmic outlook on life that includes all in One and One in all.
In conclusion it can be said that we must be proud of our unique religion as it connects us to God; but at the same time we must also appreciate other religions because they also connect other men and women to the same GOD.
India is a secular country where each citizen is free to practice any religion or faith of his choice.
One must not forget his roots and his traditions. Culture is a part of our identity which makes us an intellectual and sensitive human being.
Instead we must learn from the good principles in other religions and try to follow those habits in our daily lives.
For ex:- the principle of Zakat in Koran and the principle of daily bedtime prayer in Christianity deserves as much respect as Hindu rituals and worship activities.
