are there many ways to worship God? Yes, but only in the beginning when we start our journey towards God, Who is so compassionate and kind that, when we worship and remember Him, irrespective of methods used, sends positive signals to encourage us. However, although we may start our journeys in different ways, eventually we reach a point from where there is only one way to go, otherwise we stagnate; we cannot move further in our devotion to God. What is that one way through which we must pass to realize God, to attain salvation and thus have peace of mind? We all believe that God is one and He has thousands upon thousands of names and forms. We can choose any one of them according to our inclination or faith, and by that we can reach His abode and attain peace of mind. This is the most acceptable and popular theory and so we meditate on various names and forms of God according to our beliefs. Since God is very kind and merciful, He helps us as we worship and so we get the feeling that what we are doing is the right way and we need not look for any another way. But when we go deeper, we are surprised to find that all these ways eventually lead to one 'way', which is one and the same for all irrespective of caste, creed and religion.

So, unless and until we follow that 'way', we cannot have peace in our life. This may contradict the general belief but nevertheless it is true, and once we understand this fact, we even regret the time we wasted lingering too long at the initial stages offered by our various beliefs, religions and traditions.
