Inspired by the Journey to the West, Gandhara is devoted to both Western and Eastern Truth.
ਵਾਹਿਗੁਰੂ - Hail the Lord whose name eliminates spiritual darkness.
Om Ganeshaya Namaha (ॐ गणेशाय नमः) - Homage to Ganesha.
Unconditional love tranquilizes the mind, and thus conquers all.

Thou and God art One
The only time Christianity has one bit of Buddhism in it is the minority view that God is in your heart, and if God is there, so too is Jesus. That a Christian can maintain this belief is proof of religious tolerance. Any Christian who claims God and Jesus exist apart from man is the closest one can get to idol worship. The belief that man and God are one is the most ancient of worship.

Non-Dual Truth of Religious Tolerance
Rwâneka dhâtu winuwus Buddha Wiswa,
Bhinnêki rakwa ring apan kena parwanosen,
Mangka ng Jinatwa kalawan Siwatatwa tunggal,
Bhinnêka tunggal ika tan hana dharma mangrwa.
It is said that the well-known Buddha and Shiva are two different substances.
They are indeed different, yet how is it possible to recognise their difference in a glance,
since the truth of Jina (Buddha) and the truth of Shiva is one.
They are indeed different, but they are of the same kind, as there is no duality in Truth.
-- Kakawin Sutasoma, canto 139, stanza 5
Tolerance between Buddhists, Hindus, Muslims, Jews and even Christians is of highest esteem, as much as the piety of like-minded followers of Allah, God, the Santana-Dharma, a,d the Buddhist Dharma.
