Where I live we say "Creeds disappear, Hearts remain." This or that
creed is only the limited attempt to materialize the eternally
immaterial, which always results in some sort of distortion. But it
would seem that karma decrees that humanity continue to make creeds
out of eternal truth until we learn that spirituality cannot be
reduced to cant. Or, until we realize that our work in the world is
altruism, rather than self-aggrandizement.
