in #god8 years ago (edited)

Religion is filled with a certain amount of dogmatic concepts, but there are some gems of thought, hiding under the doctrine and help people to understand the spiritual life. If we ignore the literal description of the creation of the world and to focus on more everyday issues, you can find basic lessons and see the values latent in every religious system.

In this case you will not need to comply fully with the ideology of religion - you will see the truth, about how to live happily and peacefully, to give the desired and helping others. Only that it can be found, the deletion of the dogma of religion?

Issues of concern to humanity People want to find answers to questions about who we are, what is the essence of our lives and what is the role of man in the universe, how it should behave with others and what is happening to the planet today. Reviewing some of the myths and theological concepts, you can find answers to all these questions - they are hidden behind the narrative, clothed in a spiritual form.

Start standing with the study of the ancient beliefs, because their wisdom became the basis for all subsequent religions, defining culture of the world today. You will be able to see how differently some people understand the basic rules of morality and conscience, while maintaining a certain unity in the description of the principles of self-control, both emotional and physical. Amazing wisdom of all this knowledge can make your outlook on life more clearly and steer you in the right direction.

The essence of the teachings of the ancient stories and images of ancient religions should not be taken literally - it's archetypes, allegories, symbols, parables, all of it is used to describe the laws of reality in relation to the sphere of the invisible and the divine.

In earlier times, science has not been available to a wide range of people and technology were still not developed, so the perception of reality was deeply permeated with symbols and is directly related to the use of the imagination, that becomes the key to the meaning of each of the ancient stories. People are always looking for the truth. Whoever in the modern world perceives ancient legend literally, becomes the victim of a strict ideology and forget about a reasonable analysis of the information. The result is a religious conflict on the basis of unthinking worship.

The negative effect of religion Most people tend to focus on the differences between the religions that repel people from one another. Where it would be better to think about what we all share, to evaluate our common human needs and values. So religion is to get rid of the formalities, concentrating on basic knowledge aimed at understanding himself and the world.

The word "religion" comes from the Latin concept of "religare", meaning "to bind" or "inhibit". Religion is focused on how to understand the divine essence and it does not allow a person to avoid the thoughts that have not received approval from above. Religion limits of human perception, not allowing him to see the world holistically

Sort:  

Unless, of course, the religion is correct. Then she is among the only people who can see the world holistically.
