The Faith That Is the Life

Curuppumullage Jinarajadasa

THE message we proclaim, that a wonderful Personality is waiting to enter into men's hearts and into the heart of the world, is in truth the essence of the teaching of all the great Religions. The ethical teaching of each religion, when applied to daily life, means the identification of a man's personality with the greater Personality of the Teacher who has brought him to the Light. This identification may be merely by moulding a man's thoughts and feelings and actions after the ideal which has been lived by the Teacher, as is the case in Buddhism, Zoroastrianism and Muhammadan-ism, where the Teacher is not worshipped as God but only reverenced as a great Pattern and Example; or it may be more, as is the case with Hinduism and with mystical Christianity, where the devotee aims at an actual unification of his human nature with the Divine nature of his Teacher. In all types of religion, as too with every philosophy, science or art, which gives a code of ethics to lead to a spiritual life, there is, when all is said and done, the need of the aspirant to live in the larger life of some Master.
