Bridges across Humanity

 Only One Universal God

Some would deny any legitimate use of the word God because it has been misused so much. Certainly it is the most burdened of all human words. Precisely for that reason it is the most imperishable and unavoidable.1 —Martin Buber In all theistic religions, whether they are polytheistic or monotheistic, God stands for the highest value, the most desirable good. Hence, the specific meaning of God depends on what is the most desirable good for a person.2 —Erich Fromm I remember when my classmate from Stanford Business School, Dan Rudolph, then the Chief Operating Officer of Stanford Business School, visited me in India from California with his family. His two daughters, seven and nine years old respectively, who were raised in a devout Christian family, got quite fascinated by Hindu mythology.
