in response to Dr. Chopak Chupras question, Will the World ever find Spiritual Unification when all of us are?

I for one do not.  The world is a nasty place these days and the opinion i have is that our government is full of people who have no morals and no values.  Pride is the only thing that seems to be shaping this world and the leaders of our country and others.They are only out for themselves and have no idea or choose not to see the needs and wants of its people.  If leaders of country's around the world including this one!!, focused on morals, values and had any humanity and will to do what is actually the RIGHT thing to do this world would become an better place.  There will always be some evil, that cannot be avoided.  I only worry for future generations,  they must reap what we have sewn. A one world government is in my opinion only a possibility in fairy tales and science fiction novels

In some scriptures it is written what near end of this world Promised Messiah will come to unite the humanity on basis of Divine love.But at this moment i would like to tell an interesting news about Him and He has come and He has started His mission of unification of humanity through Divine love.His picture has appeared in the moon and black stone in Mecca(Saudi Arabia).These are signs which God has shown to recognize Him.For more informations about Him,visit www.goharshahi.com and see His picture and study His book "Religion of God" in his website www.goharshahi.com.

I certainly believe he would eventually have come to a conclusive resolution to the problem because Western Science as well as Eastern Philosophy are being unified in the same way, by accepting the importance of intuitive thinking as a complementary element in relation to logical thinking in getting to T/truth/s.  Eastern thought has intuitively understood universal/existential truths for thousands of years longer than Western scientific deductive reasoning has allowed Western civilization to understand those same universalities.  Math and Philosophy are unifying because the universe is unifying.  Let me give you an example I got from a book called The Tao of Physics.  It provided philosophical proof that because of the elemental nature of the universe it is possible to travel in time, and then the author proved it using mathematical formulas provided by Western Science to support truth that had been formulated over a thousand years ago.  This is what I mean when I say they are unifying.  And, I believe Einstein would have come to his conclusions in the same way because so many of his colleagues were beginning to become involved in the study of Eastern philosophy as a viable approach to understanding the nature of the universe.\n\nNow, understand that I am not a physicist by any stretch of the imagination. I am an English professor by trade and a scholar by heart.  But, everything I have read over the years about this issue among many others having to do with the nature of reality and its relationship to our omniverses points in this direction.  Yet, I'm still afraid I am being more intuitive than I am being logical.  As a Libra, it satisfies my nature though, to come to believe these kinds of things the way I come to believe them.\n\nIt's not much of a mathematical answer, but it is an answer of sorts.  I hope it gives peace and contentment to you.\n\nCC Ryder

"We" cannot as there will never be consensus on issues such as war, religion etc\n\nThe best that "we" can hope for is to do our personal bit to make things better.\n\nPeace Out

I have to somewhat agree with you.  With sincere apologies to Deepak Chopra I do believe the time for peace is no longer possible.\n\nThe mantra is very appealing and sounds like something I could follow in time, but society just can't handle that type of peace right now.  If a few million followed it we would still be where we are at now, with another religion/ practice to cause more controversy. \n\nVery good point though ;)

Spiritual awakening is the greatest need among humanity. After that, everything would fall into place for the greater well being of mankind.

I agree, the people of this world have forgotten that God wants us to LOVE one another. No matter what religion or race. We all came from the same place. Our world is really a mess. I guess all we can do is Pray for things to get better. GOD BLESS YOU, for caring..

There could possibly be. Isn't it a little ridiculous to think that in all the galaxies that we are the only humanoid lifeforms? whether or not you believe in God!

It is difficult to predict what the future will hold for the planet being Earth and the human species.  Humans have the ability of free-will.  We have the ability to preserve what we are as a species and the planet or destroy the creation of one or both.  Currently we are at a cross-roads in spiritual advancement.  The Service to Self people (power, money, great assets, war) and the Service to Others (global community and planetary assistance).  We are moving in the direction of the Service to Others but time will tell if we meet our objective for our evolutionary advancement and preserve the human species and our planet Earth.  Both are beautiful, I hope we do.

yes. There will not be peace on earth until all humans are eliminated because good and evil are only concepts of humans.

In a just world, yes.  But you'd have a larger question if you considered our world just.\n\nGood question~~

Yes, It is possible to someday have a "New World Order."  I mean this in the most positive way.  It will take time and some revolutionary type of thinking however.  I have traveled all over the world and I have found that we have more in common with people of the world than we have differences.  People want the same things--good health, happiness, economic opportunity, to raise a family, hope and just governance.  We are closer than many will lead us to believe. It will begin with a vision of common grounds regarding shared values and the continuous denouncing of evil and evil rhetoric.  Certainly, there is going to be hatred and contempt, but we cannot let a small minority of "Terrorists" threaten our very existence.  People are basically good and will choice good over evil once their primal needs are satisfied.  The problem with a world society is one of fairness to all people and sectors of the world.  This becomes a major obstacle to world peace and is probably the one thing that can prevent the evolution of governance to that level.  That notwithstanding--doesn't it sound a lot better to visualize world peace than to live in a world full of hatred and violence?  And a world in which we are united against those who create chaos.  I could envision a day when we are governed by a board of our peers that are responsible for ensuring just and competent governance.

Yes, everything in this world belongs to him... for humans and all beings are but doers.\n\nEver since the beginning of time God has always remained a Dhrista onlooker... right from the stage of the Big Bang and to the last stage of every Cosmos... the dissolution itself, the role of God has never been of a Karta (doer)! Every Jiva living being for that matter lives by the doctrine of karma and governs itself.\n\n God on the whole is the full puzzle and every individual soul atman being individual parts of the large puzzle. As and when an individual soul atman reaches the stage of enlightenment and finally salvation... this particular piece of puzzle comes back to join the main puzzle. It is only when the dissolution of the Cosmos occurs that all pieces of the puzzle reach their 8.4 millionth manifestation in order to complete the puzzle.\n\nReaching back to the source has been termed as reaching the kingdom of heaven in Christianity. in hinduism one reaches the level of Baikuntha... the abode of God!\n\nRight from the first manifestation as an amoeba and to the last as a human being... the only purpose of the soul atman within is to purify itself and come back to its original pristine form. It is only then the soul atman shall reach the stage of Baikuntha (abode of God in Hinduism). The total cosmic journey of 8.4 million manifestations is intended for that. A total travel of 96.4 million earthly years... a long journey indeed! More here- http://www.godrealized.com/god.html

No, Religion is a way of life. Due to many cultural differences several religions have arisen. Unification might cause lot more problems like mismatches and eventually leading to riots. It is better to make people respect each others religion. It should be done by inviting other religious people for ones festivals. This might increase the understanding between two religions.

There probably wouldn't be too many practical uses for unification.  It would be an enormous triumph of the human intellect though.  Just think about it, according to a unified theory all the forces of nature would be manifestations of just one fundamental force....thats pretty cool.  We would be one step closer to "knowing the mind of God".  However it is possible that some practical devices may come from such a theory.  Things like the artificial gravity that you see in Star Trek.  Maybe even antigravity....thats a big maybe though.
