Was doing religious research and I found all these, so which one is your best Mantra-Prayers? and Do you think they all are worshiping the same GOD? To me it looks there are, but differnt ways of calling and worshiping, I came to realise that is only a misunderstanding of religion that is making us hate one another,cos in reality to me is the same Living GOD everyone is calling out in veneration and deep devotion.

what about:

o se, o se o (3x)
o se o
o se babba

@thesilent1:Yeah you can add that is good, but then do you thibnk they are all addressing one and the only true GOD?

that question can ONLY be answered by the people reciting them i guess. as for me, i can only tell you why I do.

on a different note, would you feel we need to know if there is life on other planets or solar system? i mean if we claim to have God's word, does that mean that we SHOULD know everything about other planets as we do here on earth?

i just keep having this funny thought of seeing all sorts on ressurection day and God asking why we are shocked! did we think we knew everything!!! LOL

PS - I AM A SCI-FI FREAK AND SO I HAVE A LOT OF ISSUES! LOL THIS IS NOT A DOCTRINE PEOPLE!!! SO DO NOT GET ALL THEOLOGICAL ON ME!!!!
