I bet this would have been an interesting talk to hear in its entirety for there is much truth in one religion is no more “truthful” than the next.

Swami Vivekananda, I have read his complete works - 6 volumes, always stood fr something larger, the universality and brotherhood of Man and his religions. In 1893, at the Parliament of Religions in Chicago, where the votaries of different religions advocated for their own, Vivekanada spoke for all with the address "Brothers and sisters of America"; he was placed last in the line of speakers and the crowd had by then started thinning out, but upon hearing these words, they stood transfixed and gave him a standing ovation for a full ten minutes. The rest is all history. Thanx for sharing.
