Can I become Jewish, Christian, Muslim, Mormon, Sikh,& Hindu etc..just to cover the odds,in case one Right?

I wonder at times, which religion is correct, and if I'm Muslim and what if only Christians get to Heaven, or what if I'm Christian, and the Jews were right, and Jesus wasn't the Messiah, or if I'm Mormon, and I just refined the previous three into perfection, or maybe Hindus or Sikhs...or maybe the Egyptian Annead were the true God.....Can't I just Cover them All? And just try to please God that way?


then again...what if the Atheist were correct all along, and I'm just wasting my time?Can I become Jewish, Christian, Muslim, Mormon, Sikh,%26amp; Hindu etc..just to cover the odds,in case one Right?
What a joke. You are confused because you are the character you are. Sweet heart, you know you never looked into Sikhism, obviously as your very question proves.





Sikhism is NOT a religion, it is a Universalistic Philosophy belonging to all schools of thought or religions and people. In fact, there is no such thing as ';ism'; in Sikhi*. ';ism'; is a suffix that we folks added to Sikhi (Learning Process).





Also, Sikhs do not go around converting others because Almighty does all, and it is a foolish thing to do. There is no such thing as ';convert'; or ';religion'; or ';groups'; in Sikhism, rather it is the embracing of EVERYTHING (God)...everything that God created and learning from it. God did not create only those religions or things you are interested in. The word ';Sikh'; means ';learner';. Notice that this word premeditates upon open-mindedness, diversity, understanding and acceptance of all possible issues which may arise in any given situation or time.





Sikhism states that the initial purpose of all religions is divine, but religion as we perceive it is a curse, because it creates duality (separation) amongst us humans and all created phenomenon. Therefore, there is only ONE Almighty Truth (God) for ALL no matter what school of thought one prescribes to.





Again, the very word ';Sikh'; has an unequivocal meaning, ';Learner.'; Every person who is breathing now, or even those who are in the womb, know that s/he is a ';learner';. This whole world is created for our own Sikhi (Learning process). In this process, we are to treat all life with respect, tolerance for all religions/school of thoughts, equality and justice and find sustenance in serving all humans humbly--while at the same time ';Learning'; (Sikh) from their religion /knowledge /experiences... etc.---yet remaining true to the same Universal goodness of the heart which is immanent within all.





How did Guru Nanak reply to people like you who ask such questions? He said, ';there is no Muslim, no Hindu';. Those who are pure in the heart (Khalsa) know for sure that there is no such thing as you Muslim, you Hindu, he Christian, she Jewish, you this, them that, me THIS. Guru Nanak eliminated the ego and duality in people and made them realize that we are all walking on the same floor---as Learners (Sikhs).Can I become Jewish, Christian, Muslim, Mormon, Sikh,%26amp; Hindu etc..just to cover the odds,in case one Right?
No. You cannot be an active member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and be a member of another church as well.
I would say no. First you have to learn how to take yourself seriously.
Absolutely not, either you got Jesus, or you don't.
Lol! you are funny. I don't know why people are so eager to get to heaven. That's very far. First we need to learn how to be human beings. If we don't learn to respect each other beliefs, none of us are going to heaven.


All religions take you to divine path. It's just how you follow it. All the prophets Jesus, Mohammad, Krishna, Buddha, Guru Nanak spread the same message of love. It's only us that are fighting over who is superior....


That is why none of us are going to heaven.
It is impossible to believe 2 or more contradicting beliefs at the same time. If you claim to then you would be fooling yourself.
There are common themes for many of the schools within Hinduism that can be found in the Vedic scriptures, and such works as the Bhagavad Gita. Remember yoga originated out of Hinduism. Most people only know the physical forms of yoga, called hatha, but those techniques area actually preparatory techniques for the higher practices of the spiritual types of yoga such as jnana, karma, and bhakti. You can practice a form of hatha but it helps to be grounded and centered in some sense in the higher forms of yoga or all you are doing is stretching. In the highest practices of yoga, they all lead to complete bhakti - surrender.





If you are interested in the yoga teachings of Lord Krishna, then one thing you may want to focus on to learn and practice in a more nonsectarian manner is the Uddhava Gita. The Uddhava Gita is a summation of the essence of the Bhagavad Gita (and the simplest and most direct practice of yoga), and so it is eminently suitable for nonsectarian, universal teaching which is the essence of Hinduism.





Here is a short summation of the Uddhava Gita which is found in the Srimad Bhagavatam (also known as Bhagavata Purana) 11.7:





EPILOGUE - LORD KRISHNA'S LAST SERMON





At the end of another long sermon comprising of more than one thousand verses, disciple Uddhava said: ';O Lord Krishna, I think the pursuit of God as You narrated to Arjuna (in the Bhagavad Gita), and now to me, is very difficult indeed, for most people; because it entails control of unruly senses. Please tell me a short, simple, and easy way to God-realization.'; Lord Krishna upon Uddhava's request gave the essentials of Self-realization as follows:





路 Do your duty, to the best of your ability, for Me without worrying about the outcome.





路 Remember Me at all times. (Note that this is the point of chanting things like the mahamantra - Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna, Hare Kare, Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare which is often chanted in kirtan or a variation of it. The whole point of kirtan and mantra is remembrance.)





路 Perceive that God is within every living being. Mentally bow down to all beings and treat all beings equally.





路 Perceive through the activities of mind, senses, breathing, and emotions that the power of God is within you at all times, and is constantly doing all the work using you as a mere instrument and a trustee.
It doesnt matter what religion you are! Muslims pray 5 times a day, and Hindus bathe in the ganges river. You Cannot obtain god with these practices my freind, God lives in every beings heart irrespective of religion. The people who are really going to heaven are the people who speak the truth, live honestly, have a good heart and help others.
This one: what if the Atheist were correct all along, and I'm just wasting my time?
I know every religion thanks they have the answer but I can tell you this. If your not a Christian the you can be all the others and it won't help. Trust Jesus He's real.
No you can't please God by being foolish. God hates sin and foolishness.





Remember that Jesus is the only way to God and salvation and any hope of eternity in heaven. The devil is smarter than you because he knows that God is in control. He has read the 'end of the book' and knows that his days are numbered. The sad thing about your question is that you are spending so much energy on being 'cute' instead of honestly looking for the truth.





My job as a Christian is to tell you the truth. We will see the end of life as we presently know it and we must prepare for our eternity. IF you want to live in heaven you MUST choose God through Jesus. IF you don't do this, then you will live in hell for eternity. There is only one option. Everything else is a lie from Satan.





My advice is to seek wisdom and to ask God into your life. I pray that you do so soon.
Live a good life. treat others as you would like to be treated, be kind to neighbors and those in need and you will do just fine. Don't worry so much about ';which religion is correct'; Follow your instincts. That will be your best choice.
you're confused. haven't you ever heard that you can't serve two masters? you can't be hot and cold. the safest bet is logic and reason, pray that the right religion turns up and I have found that to be the Catholic Faith. you can disagree but you can't change the truth. good luck!
