"Maintaining unity, keeping ukhuwah, and keeping unity, that's the most important," he said.

As stated by Moeldoko, Satori asserts, basically all religions want and teach the same thing, which is peace, which can be realized if the interlenders love each other and respect the differences.

"Therefore, all the steps we lead to creation in the form of love in real life," he added.
