The aim of this article is to bring a revolution in this country. For decades we have been fighting in the name of caste, creed, religion and region. Its high time. We need to break the clutches and get out of this old mindset. Human emotions and principles must be valued upon anything else.
The most deadly form of insanity is an obsessional neuroses commonly called as RELIGION...this disease has caused more damage than any other communicable disease...in its advancd forms it destoys all sense of right n wrong in the victim...join in the struggle against superstition, blind faith and fanatism
"HUMANITY IS THE BEST RELIGION" are actually following the priciples laid by Guru Nanak Dev ji
HE started the common kitchen(langar) which became a major instrument of helping the poor, and a nucleus for religious gatherings of his society and of establishing the basic equality of all castes, classes and sexes. AND STILL IS.
Guru Nanak Dev ji laid forth three basic principles by which every human being should abide:
1. Remember the name of God at all times.
2. Earn an honest living as a householder.
3. Share a portion of your earnings with the less fortunate.
Besides rejecting the caste system, idolatry, and ritualism, he preached universal equality. In consistence with his message of equality, he scorned those who considered women to be evil and inferior.

2.HINDU
Hinduism is the oldest theological faith in the world with a very long history. The history of Hinduism is looked at by different people in different perspective. Different proofs and documents are quoted for their theories. Western researchers, Indian Historians, Religious pundits and Vedic scholars all quote different time periods as the origin of Hinduism. All these views are expressed as it is in the following pages without contradicting any of them. From ancient times there were several types of similar village faiths and rituals practiced all over South Asia and Southeast Asia. Hinduism as we know it today, started with the Vedas, believed to be as old as the creation itself, or even precedes creation, as the very breath exhaled by the Almighty Brahmam. Some 'Pundits' believe that it started from the time of the creation of the universe 2.8 billion years ago. Some Vedic scholars stretch it to the origin of human race 1.34 million years ago. Some scholars of Vedas say that it is 50,000 years old.
3.MUSLIM
Atheism is the biggest crime in Islam. It is Kufr, which is punishable by death. The very first Sufis got this treatment, and lakhs more in the history of Islam.
But still it keeps happening. People like Ali Sina, Ibn Warraq, Anwar Shaikh, Taslima Nasreen have done that and many more.
The Qur'an is one of the two sources which form the basis of Islam. The second source is the Sunnah of the Prophet (saw). What makes the Qur'an different from the Sunnah is primarily its form. Unlike the Sunnah, the Qur'an is literally the Word of Allah (swt), whereas the Sunnah was inspired by Allah but the wording and actions are the Prophet's (saw). The Qur'an has not been expressed using any human's words.
4.SIKH
A progressive religion well ahead of its time when it was founded over 500 years ago, The Sikh religion today has a following of over 20 million people worldwide and is ranked as the worlds 5th largest religion. Sikhism preaches a message of devotion and remembrance of God at all times, truthful living, equality of mankind and denounces superstitions and blind rituals. Sikhism is open to all through the teachings of its 10 Gurus enshrined in the Sikh Holy Book and Living Guru, Sri Guru Granth Sahib.
WHO AND WHAT IS A SIKH?
The word 'Sikh' in the Punjabi language means 'disciple', Sikhs are the disciples of God who follow the writings and teachings of the Ten Sikh Gurus. The wisdom of these teachings in Sri Guru Granth Sahib are practical and universal in their appeal to all mankind.
.....Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh......
"Khalsa is the breath of my body,
Khalsa is the very soul of my life,
Khalsa is my real pride and glory,
Khalsa is my own personal self,
Khalsa is my life’s sustainer,
Khalsa is my body and breath,
Khalsa is my creed and karma,
Khalsa is my conscience keeper,
Khalsa is my perfect Satguru,
Khalsa is my brave friend,
Khalsa gives me intellect and wisdom,
Khalsa is my object of meditation."
5.BUDDHISM
In the sixth century before the Christian era, religion was forgotten in India. The lofty teachings of the Vedas were thrown into the background. There was much priestcraft everywhere. The insincere priests traded on religion. They duped the people in a variety of ways and amassed wealth for themselves.
They were quite irreligious. In the name of religion, people followed in the footsteps of the cruel priests and performed meaningless rituals. They killed innocent dumb animals and did various sacrifices. The country was in dire need of a reformer of Buddha's type. At such a critical period, when there were cruelty, degeneration and unrighteousness everywhere, reformer Buddha was born to put down priestcraft and animal sacrifices, to save the people and disseminate the message of equality, unity and cosmic love everywhere.
One of the glories of mankind is the appearance on earth of the truly great, truly unique individual, the genius who influences the world.
