Every war and every conflict between human beings has happened because of some disagreement about names. It is such an unnecessary foolishness, because just beyond the arguing there is a long table of companionship set and waiting for us to sit down. What is praised is One, so the praise is one too, many jugs being poured into a huge basin. All religions, all this singing, One song. The differences are just illusion and vanity. Sunlight looks a little different on this wall than it does on that wall and a lot different on this other one, but it is still One light. We have borrowed these clothes, these time-and-space personalities, from a light, and when we praise, we are pouring them back in. ~Rumi
