Old Scriptures

like to turn to the old
sayings Of other religions and
many times I receive inspira-
tiou from them.
Here is a saying from the
old Hindus.
The object OF al religions
is alike. The Supreme Being
is sometimes with him who
counts his prayers on sacred
beads in the mosque. and
sometimes with him who bows
down before idols in the
temple. He Is the friend OF
the Hindu. the intimate of the
Nohammedan. the companion
OF the Christian. and the con-
ndant Of the Jew.
Heaven Is palace with
many doors. and each one NAV
enter in his own way.@
