The Kolkota school’s presentation titled “There is only one God; He Is omnipresent” was on the theme of oneness of all religions, where all paths lead to the same Goal… One God.
The presentation began with an assertive declaration of the theme title, followed by various religious teachings illustrated through episodes catching the crème of the message.
Shankaracharya’s Sanathana Dharma, Buddha’s preaching on Nirvana, Compassion exemplified life of Jesus Christ, Holy prophetic teachings of Mohmmed, Guru Nanak’s theory of Religion of Mankind were illustrated in serial episodes leading to the bottom-line, “There is only one God; He Is omnipresent”.
The presentation concluded airing Bhagawan’s message, “Let the different faiths exist, let them flourish, and let the glory of God be sung in all the languages and a variety of tunes” followed by a group song, echoing “Sab Ka Malik Ek Hey…”
The presentation was scripted portraying a scene involving a father and son duo, wherein the father educating the son all about the essential teachings of important religions.
