VISION

    VISION

    There’s noth­ing worth carv­ing out of this defi­cient piece of stone”, Ital­ian sculp­tor Duc­cio said cen­turies ago. Like him, many said same lines to describe their gloomy view of life through phi­los­o­phy, sci­ences, art, pol­i­tics etc. Here’s what we at Uni­ver­sal­ist Radha-Krishnaism say to that.

    BEAUTY

    BEAUTY

    Beauty touches and renews our hope when it takes us out of the grid of ordi­nary time and brings us to another place, a place where his­tory ceases and the weight of mem­ory relents, a place ever ancient and ever new.
    — John O’ Donohue

    AFFIRMATION OF LIFE

    AFFIRMATION OF LIFE

    God is the source of life. And if God is the source of life, the only way I can wor­ship God is by liv­ing fully. And I’ve got to ded­i­cate myself as a fol­lower of this God to build­ing a world where every­body has an oppor­tu­nity to live fully.

    ON LITERALISM

    ON LITERALISM

    I spend my time, not reject­ing the way the Chris­t­ian story has been under­stood, but reject­ing the lit­er­al­ism that has been imposed upon it. My sec­u­lar human­ist friends would reject the whole story.
