All mystics speak the same language, for they come from the same country

What we are all looking for, even though we are searching in the most improbable places, is infinite wisdom, infinite joy, infinite love. In other words, we are trying to discover our real nature. At the very core of our being is a spark of purity, of perfection, of divinity. When we learn to identify less and less with that which is subject to change and more and more with this core of perfection, we are gradually moving closer to this supreme goal. Though different religions call it by different names, the goal is always the same. It is nirvana to the Buddhists, moksha to the Hindus, Jesus calls it ‘entering the kingdom of heaven within.’ To the Sufis it is union with the Beloved, to the Jewish mystics it is return to the Promised Land. No matter what they call it, all the great religions point to the same supreme goal.
