Vedanta or Tantra? Paths are Many yet Truth is One.

It is said that there are many paths but that there is only one truth. Is it correct? Yes. Truth is one. More so. Truth is all is self and that self is all. What it means is simply this. There is only one cosmic consciousness (which is self really) which veils itself as manifoldness to escape aloneness with the single purpose of self being companionship otherwise known as friendship and love. Now as to the essential difference between buddhism, christianity, islam, sufism, advaita vedanta, kashmir shaivism, tantra, et al? There is no difference really. All differentiation is born out of self desiring companionship. It is not good for self to be by itself. The purpose of self is love.~ Wald Wassermann
