Love others as you love yourself

CHENNAI: Understanding of GodGod’s presence is in everything that we see around us. God has no form. When we are good to others and do good things in our life, God is there with us. If you nurture the seeds of compassion, you’ll find him next to you. I completely believe in that. I find him in everything I do.Spiritual practicesI practise Christianity. I do visit churches and also temples quite often. However, I have no reasons for it. MiraclesThere are many. The one thing that I’m quite sure is that my existence proves God’s existence. Favourite pilgrimage  spotsApart from churches, I also pray to Lord Murugan and visit temples. I see him more as a friend than God. Whenever I travel, I feel happy if I find a slogan or a picture of Lord Murugan. InfluencesEvery religion teaches one thing — that is love all (Thou Shalt Love thy neighbour...) living creatures as you love yourself. I believe that if each one practises this idea in their lives, this world will definitely turn out to be a much more peaceful and happier place. Most importantly, we will gift our future generations a better world to live.  (RJ Lavanya works with 92.7 Big FM)
