Religion's purpose is to provide the recipe
for an ethical way of living in this life
with the hope that will continue
into the other life, if that exists.
Its a philosophy to guide our lives
to keep us on the right track.


This is the main purpose of every religion
independently from how that is called or marketed into the wider public.


Whether the pavlova recipe is written by Nigella or Jamie or Mary Berry,
it does not really matter as far as the result is concerned as the result is a pavlova anyway.
In other words, whether the recipe is called Christianity or Buddhism or Taoism,
it does not really matter as those serve the same purpose.


However, people forgot the purpose of the latter
turning religion
into one of the most complicated political games.

Empathy can be only understood when found in our personal programming code...

Empathy can only be achieved

if the similar experiences, whether those are positive or negative

have been experienced by the people that these trying to be communicated.

Its like giving instructions to a computer language such as SQL.

If the instructions are not already found in the compiler,

SQL will not be able to recognise those and will bring an error.

If SQL is asked to select the variable joy and that does not exist in the tbl_experiences,

then an error will pop up as this variable will not be able to be identified or related.

What ever we experience in life positive or negative,

this constructs our own programming code.

If we experienced a certain type of joy, 

such as the birth of a baby or giving affection to our pets,

this then will be inserted in our experiences repository.

If we experienced a certain type of sadness,

such as the loss of a loved one or failing an exam,

this then will be inserted in our experiences repository.

We can relate to other individuals

if only and only if,

those experienced the same items 

and have those built in their personal programming code.

Weekly Reflections

Dear All,

Hello! I am back to blogging after a not so short break... I missed it and I missed you of course! What about you?

My aim is to share with you my weekly reflections, every Thursday evening, to inspire you and make you think of philosophical concepts in an easier and more digestible manner.

The source of those? My so far lessons learned in the "school of life" extracted through thoughts, feelings and personal experiences...and also through discussions to assist others developing a better understanding on specific matters that require resolution and how those can be better addressed and therefore resolved by themselves.

Triggers of those are various:
* challenges arose in the daily life
* certain matters require thinking prior resolving
* ethical dilemmas...

Hope you will find those thoughts inspiring enough to assist you view the world with different "pair of glasses"/ ways of seeing and therefore ways of thinking... Because the beauty comes from within: the more time we spend resolving our internal fights then the less the external fights will be... in our closer relationships or the broader ones such as the society that we live in or the whole world itself.
