If God is one,why should there be different paths?
God manifests Himself in different forms.Even as a human form he manifests Himself at different places,at different times with different levels of conciousness.Groups of souls having different levels of conciousness are born in different places and times.These groups of souls are so born because they are required to experience certain common religious ,social,geographic etc situations necessary for their evolution.For example ,a group of souls may be born from parents belonging to one religion or in a certain country.In the next life ,to have different experience ,some of these souls may be born of parents having a different country or nationality.Many Hindus became Buddhists when Lord Buddha came and many Hindus came and many Hindus came back to the folds of Hinduism later at the time of Shankaracharya.Therefore ,there are different ways of evolution of the souls .Ultimately, all these paths converge at one point I.e God realization or in God from where they all emanated.
