“There is no such thing as organized religion, because religion organized is religion lost. Religion by nature ought to be about liberating the mind of all divisions - all organizations - if not, then it is not religion to begin with - or at the very least, it is the most infantile form of religion.”
― Mukemmel Musalman: Kafir Biraz, Peygamber Biraz

“One Spirit, Many Vessels (Sonnet 1021)
Christ was not a christian,
Vyasa was not a hindu.
Mohammed was not a muslim,
Abraham was not a jew.
Buddha was not a buddhist,
Confucius was not confucian.
Zoroaster was not zoroastrian,
Naskar is not naskarean.
Nanak was not a sikh,
Mahavir was not a jain.
All that we ever wanted is,
To remind the humans to be human.
Move past the person, and delve into spirit.
There you shall discover, divisions do not exist.”
― The Centurion Sermon: Mental Por El Mundo
