The term contradicts itself: whatever can be common always has little value. In the end it must be as it is and always has been: great things remain for the great, abysses for the profound, nuances and shudders for the refined, and, in brief, all that is rare for the rare.

This makes Hinduism the most tolerant religion in the world, because its one transcendent God includes all possible gods.
