the nature to take and then worship life
...is an entrancing mystery that may be the essence of every enigma imaginable.
I'd like to savour this fortune of religious studies - the studies they call waste of time - occupying my days. *grinning like mad* The class that captivates me the most is undoubtedly Buddhism and Nature. Being allowed to devote my time to metaphysical pursuits...and get credits for it :D~~~ *wipes her drool off the keyboard*
Anyway, despite my appetite for religious learning I am not religious. In this case I mean I do not affiliate myself with any religious organization. They tell me it's weird, pointing out I collect books on buddhism and scriptures, draw various buddhas, go to a zen school where monks are walking around, have a (lovely) buddha calendar on the wall and listen to chanting (it's my lullaby, but my grandma finds it psychotic XD) etc. I say they are different things. I love buddhism, it's a philosophy that opened my mind to other philosophies and widened my horizon. And I'm not a member of any religious organization.
I love learning about religion and at the same time, to be frank with you I despise religion. I think it was that photo of a woman dressed in black burqa I saw when I was ten that drove me to this field. There was of course the witch trial, great sayings in the New testament, and various other hints. I have love-and-hate relationship with religion and I crave it.
The question of "God." "Hell." Aren't they all charming? I watch the huge crowd not questioning a transparently absurd notion. It fascinates me. It repels me.
I crave this subject they call 'useless' and waste of time. I noticed nearly most of what I really love to do or learn this society considers useless. I ignore them anyway XD
