Due to the position of the eyes, we cannot see our face with our eyes without any reflecting medium. We use mirror for this purpose. We prefer clear, clean and plain mirror to see our original face without being distorted. If we go for dusty, concave or convex mirror, we cannot observe our true face, it would be unreal and distorted. Irrespective of of the brand or cost of the mirror, its work is to show your face. When we see in a mirror, our attention remains on our face not on the type of mirror or its brand. If we pay attention on the mirror, we can only observe the brand, shape and size of the mirror not our true face, which is not our purpose.
Likewise, to observe our true self, we need some reflecting medium. All the religions, authentic scriptures and revered spiritual teachers(Guru) work as a mirror to show the true self of the individuals. Misinterpretation of religions, scriptures are like a concave, convex or dusted mirror which represent the distorted image of our true self. In order to reflect our true self, we need to go to the authentic version of our scriptures not the later or distorted version of that. The later version might be constituted with personal or political influences, which can never help someone to recognize his true self. To observe the original one the originality of the medium is important.
No religions, its authentic scriptures and teachings are wrong. The blind people may scoff the concept of the mirror and the face. Or people putting their palm on their eyes or standing in the darkness and want to watch their face in the mirror, they cannot. Just come out from the darkness and remove your palm from your eyes, means, break all your blind-belief and go to the authentic scriptures of any religion what you follow, It will help you to show your true self, the spirit. There is no any other purpose of any religions than spirituality, the knowledge of the spirit (the true self). Once the person knows the true self, there is nothing in this world to be known to him, he would be free from all kinds of delusion and live in peace ad ecstatic. There would be no boundary for him like religion and other draconian traditions. The boundaries of the society, religions, creed, regions, languages or any other discriminations are the act of immature and ignorant people who cannot see their true self. Demising without knowing the true self is the greatest sin.
Knowing the self is possible by discarding the blind belief and going to the authentic scriptures with pure and pious heart and mind, without despising others religion and scriptures. All have the same purpose with different names.
