The great declaration of the vedā: ‘The reality is one, sages designate it variously’ indicates that whatever religion people profess, they are worshipping the supreme being in their own way, with faith. God, being omnipresent, responds to the devotee’s prayers, meditation or worship in his own way. Having this attitude, the devotee regards whatever he receives in his life as the gift of God, and he is forever happy and unperturbed.
He who recognizes the all-pervasiveness of God and still worships the supreme being alone through his different aspects will go to the supreme; but he who, unable to comprehend this truth, worships the forms themselves as God – even he is not lost!
He will become one with that aspect of God and in course of time realize God’s infinity. What a heart-warming doctrine!
No one is condemned forever. Whatever be one’s concept of God, faith redeems him, for while the form remains as such, God is made manifest in the heart.
