Tolerance

To speak metaphorically, God is in the center of a circle, the circumference of which is the universe. The various radii from the circumference to the center are the various religions. The points on the radii near the circumference are distinctly and widely apart from each other; but as they approach the center, they come increasingly close to each other.
In the same way, the more a person becomes spiritually minded or advances towards God, the more tolerant he becomes and the less differentiation he sees.

Interesting perspective! God at the hub. Is S/He also at the circumference, though? I think of God as the hub AND the circumference and all spaces in between and beyond….
