I agree with Saranicka,
There is one truth. It is called energy. We are all made of it, we will all disintegrate in it. Our body will become ashes, but our energy will remain.
In this life, we have this body. It is a gift from Mother Earth, wonderful gift that many people are not grateful for.
In this body we have various opportunities, we can do the most of it, or we can do nothing of it.
We can also be restless, somewhere in middle, in constant trying and doing nothing.
But the truth is, we are much more then this body; we are linked with entire universe, we are the part of it.
We can get aware of that link with universe by faith, but not Religion, Faith itself, truly believing.
Religion and faith are not the same things.
Religion is an institution of faith, like a building in which a treasure is hidden. The building can be crushed down, but gold remains gold even after the building is crushed.
The point is that the treasure is everywhere, not just in institutions; it is in every possible thing, in every sunset, in every sunrise, in every breath we take, in every present moment we are aware of.
This entire existence is treasure, amazing treasure.
Entire life is a gift, the most beautiful and most precious one we will ever get in this life time, and we are mostly not aware of it.
What are we aware of? Are we aware at all? Mostly not. Of course, some people truly do live in awareness and spend their life in true awareness, but most people are only blundering with their heads down, seeing nothing, not even what time of the day is, nothing, only judging others with little or with no awareness at all.
They judge people by the color of their skin, by the rang of education, by the material wealth, by religion, by all that they can use to judge.
Do you know why people judge others? Because they think that in that way they will escape from their selves. They can't stay not even for a moment alone, in silence, with their failures and with their successes. They have already disintegrated in the majority of others.
Their consciousness is asleep and they are blinded by shallow emotions and by making them selves good in other people eyes.
They are not aware, so they can't be aware that all they have to do is to awaken; HERE and NOW! Because life is here and now. We can't live tomorrow and yesterday is already gone, so the only thing we truly have is this very moment.
It is on us what shall we do of it, shall we sleep in it, or we shall awaken and live in it.
Artnwere, the truth that Christianity is telling about, that infinite love of Christ is fitting perfectly in any path you take. Love Christ, and not institution, love Buddha, Krishna, love Divine, love Don Juan..., whoever nagual/enlightened one you can believe to and not some silly building, made of stone, with no spiritual power in it at all.
