Undoubtedly, the religion has an important place in human life and it joins the heart to hearts; it inspires the people to lead an ideal and peaceful life.

Introduction Religion is at the very basis of human life. Religion influences every human action and behaviour and so it affects the very activity of human life. Whatever explanations and meanings of the fundamental basis of life be given, and since whenever we may accept its very existence, we cannot but accept this fact that 'religion' has been the source of establishing peace in the world that means peace for all human beings.
