Religion and Spirituality | In Quest of Truth - Babaji Q&A, No. 247
Recorded on 11 October 2025 with worldwide participants

0:00 Intro
0:14 Do religions and spirituality lead to the same goals?
9:51 How do we choose which path to adopt?
11:30 Some religions say after death there is rebirth, others say there isn't - which is correct?
21:16 Is there a heaven and is the goal of life heaven or Self Realisation?
25:26 Some religions say there is one god, in some religions there are many gods, and some say there is no god. Which is correct?
28:34 Is god a personality sitting in heaven or is god formless?
35:14 If god is all-pervaded and transcending the forms is the goal, then how do we understand the appearance of Shiva and Parvati at the end of Swamiji's Tapas?
38:13 There are so many methods prescribed in the different religious and spiritual paths, are some better than others?
42:45 Do Yogis exist in all religions and paths?
45:08 There have been many wars fought in the name of religion - is religion actually helping or causing problems also?
46:46 So to conclude, we should focus more on the mind and meditation and leave aside all the differences in the religions and reach the goal of Self Realisation?
49:33 For those who believe that god is a particular form, have they simply not reasoned it out?
53:18 I understand that the Divinity is all-pervaded so why do we concentrate the Divinity into one form?
55:22 Why after Babaji has blessed an object, do I feel more attracted to it?
56:20 If god is pure consciousness, how can anything dark or evil come from purity?
57:26 If god is everything, why do we assume god is pure and bliss?
