The anti-paths are spreading in the world today, and so by this we make a call to the righteous to gather themselves in congregations and practice forms of pure religion. Pure religion in its absolute form is independent from culture, from language, but can take the form of any and live within the context of any. It is like a Surakav bird that is sometimes green, sometimes red, sometimes blue, but it is still the same bird. Similarly, the true religion can take the form of Hindu, Buddhism, Islam, and can be within the middle eastern culture, or within the western culture. It is still the same jewel.
Many are the religions of the world. All religions are true, they are all forms of the primordial true religion, but some are too old and vague, with many superstitions and dogmas entered to them and covered their faces, they are like far off starts: far and dim. They still show a pattern. We respect them, but do not follow them.
We are not to wait for the stars to come back and shine again, but we can create new forms of pure religion within our current culture and society. No need to create another branch of Christianity or Islam. The word of Truth is truth because it is truth. It does not need to be within the framework of Christianity and made related to a Gospel verse in order to be truth. A priest can go to the pulpit and preach without referring to the Gospel even once, yet his words are salvation, since he is connected to the same source as all prophets and saints in old days.
Thus, forms of pure religion are to be spread on the face of earth, each based on a particular culture, each having its own color. Apart from these localized forms, there is also a need for an international form. Since the will of Ahura (Great God) was that in this age men gather in one global community. So there could be an international congregation for worshipping the Divine where people from all races and countries gather, and in addition to worshipping Divine in their local language at their local congregation, here they worship Divine in a common language with people from all over the world.
The ancient texts talk about a mysterious temple with a column at its center. And when one person of each country and race gathers there and all circle around the column holding hands in an unbroken chain, a mystic union will take place. And this symbol signals a solution to all our problems today. To solve major problems in the world we need God, we need strong and absolute connection to upper worlds. A faithless Godless group is too weak. Like a man who goes into battle with bare hands and bare feet. We need iron claws and steel wills. Once brethren from every nation hold hands, when the movement in a circle around the mystic column begins, when the faith and connection centers in the crowd, then the strength will be established.
The congregation of the righteous stretches from the sea of Japan to the shores of Newfoundland. A tie connecting people in many countries , allowing them to rise above every country. A country in country, and a hidden order behind all orders. It is an agent of righteousness and guardian of light in the world. A poem talks about "Uncle chain maker" who constantly creates chains of flowers but throws them behind the mountain. The chain represents this unity of the righteous across the universe, each is like a flower chain, and the mountain is the agent of forgetfulness and Evil. We should go and redeem those chains, and bring them back.
Thus, there should be two versions of pure religion, one local where the religion is expressed in local culture and local language, and one global where an international congregation gathers and worship is done in some language known to all. There would be less cultural elements in this form. The principles remain the same in both forms. And one should not see any difference in them. The differences are just colors and skins. One should see the same God in both forms, and even in other forms of the religion in different cultures. One should experience the same God in a Japanese temple as in an American temple, as well as in the temple of his own language.
And there shall be houses of Erfan (knowledge) and pure religion in every nation for teaching ethics and rules of righteousness. When all these centers are established, when Divinity is regularly worshiped everywhere, when people dedicate themselves to ethics and good works as the way, when some offer their lives in fight against oppression then we will come near to Divine blessing. And in that blessing a strength is produced which drives away the Evil of the world.
