| God is a mystery that is experienced best when enlightened. |
Imana ni amayobera umuntu amenya neza iyo ayisobanukiwe. |
| We can only say that it is good to live in God. |
Icyo dushobora kuvuga gusa ni uko ari byiza kuba mu Mana. |
| It is better to be enlightened than not enlightened. |
Ibyiza ni ukugira ubumenyi kuruta kutagira ubwo bumenyi. |
| Enlightenment is the deeper purpose of life. |
Kumenya ni yo ntego y'ikomeye y'ubuzima.. |
| Through enlightenment, we reach the kingdom of God. |
Binyuze mu gusobanukirwa k, tugera mu bwami bw'Imana. |
| Enlightenment means inner peace, inner happiness and all-encompassing love for all beings. |
Ubumeny busobanura amahoro yo mu mutima, ibyishimo byo mu mutima n'urukundo ruhebuje byose. |
| An enlightened person lives in God. |
Umuntu wasobanukiwe umucyo aba mu Mana. |
| He or she sees God as a kind of light in the world. |
Abona Imana nk'umucyo w'isi. |
| He or she feels God in him or herself and around him or herself. |
Yumva Imana muri we no mu bye. |
| He or she feels God as inner happiness, inner peace and inner strength and is aware that he or she is in a higher truth that can only be described as universal love. |
Yumva Imana nk'ibyishimo by'imbere, amahoro yo mu mutima n'imbaraga zo mu mutima kandi azi ko ari mu kuri kw'ikirenga gushobora gusobanurwa gusa nk'urukundo ruhebuje. |
| In each of the major religions, there are varied definitions of God. |
Mu madini yose akomeye, harimo ibisobanuro binyuranye by'uko Imana iri. |
| In the religions we also find the personal and abstract term of God. |
Nanone kandi, mu madini dusangamo imvugo y'Imana y'abantu ku giti cyabo n'ibikubiyemo. |
| Many enlightened mystics think of God as a person and some others as a higher dimension in the cosmos. |
Abantu benshi b'abahanga mu by'amayobera batekereza ko Imana ari umuntu, naho abandi bakavuga ko ari ikintu cyo mu rwego rwo hejuru kiri mu isanzure ry'ikirere. |
| In Buddhism and in Hinduism the abstract term of God dominates. |
Mu idini ry'Ababuda no mu rya Hindu, ijambo ry'ikigereranyo ry'Imana ni ryo rikoreshwa cyane. |
| In Buddhism, the highest principle is called Nirvana and in Hinduism it’s called Brahman. |
Mu idini ry'Ababuda, ihame riruta ayandi ryitwa Nirvana naho mu idini ry'Abahindu ryitwa Brahman. |
| Jesus referred to God as father. |
Yesu yise Imana se. |
| Moses referred to God more in an abstract fashion. |
Mose yise ku Mana mu buryo bw'ikigereranyo. |
| His central definition of God was described with the words “I am.” |
Ibisobanuro bye by'ingenzi byerekeranye n'Imana yabisobanuye mu ijambo ngo "Ndiho". |
| These words refer to God as a happy state of being where one experiences enlightenment. |
Ayo magambo agaragaza ko Imana igira ibyishimo, iyo umuntu ayisobanukiwe. |
| In the words “I am” we find the main way to enlightenment. |
Muri iryo jambo ngo "Ndiho", tuhasanga inzira y'ingenzi igana ku kumenya. |
| People need to develop a cosmic consciousness, a consciousness of the unity of all things. |
Abantu bakeneye kwiga umuco wo kumenya, umutimanama z'ubumwe bw'ibintu byose, |
| Thus the ego consciousness is lost. |
Ni yo mpamvu, umutimanama wayoyotse. |
| Then one experiences pure consciousness, is one with everything and can only say: “I am.” |
Iyo umuntu afite ubumuntu buboneye, aba afite byose kandi ashobora kuvuga gusa ati: "Ndiho". |
| He or she cannot say “I am so and so.” |
Ntashobora kuvuga ati "ndi uyu n'uyu". |
| He or she identifies with everything and everyone and is personally nothing and is simply consciousness. |
We ubwe yihuza n'ibintu byose n'abantu bose, kandi ku giti cye nta cyo ari cyo, ahubwo ni ubumuntu gusa. |
| God as a being who can take action helps us along the spiritual way. |
Imana kuko ishobora kugira icyo ikora, idufasha kugendera mu nzira y'umwuka. |
| All enlightened beings are an incarnation of God. |
Ibiremwa byose biri mu ishusho y'Imana. |
| If you connect with God or an enlightened being daily, you will be lead in the light. |
Niba buri munsi uganira n'Imana cyangwa ikindi kiremwa gifite ubumenyi uzayoborwa mu mucyo. |
