If you want to engage,
evoke,
experience,
encounter
the Numinous,
Ineffable,
Transcendent,
spend your time in the company
of Art,
Music
and Nature,
and in the practice of
Emptiness,
Stillness
and Silence.

These things compose my idea 
of True Religion
and have been seen as such
throughout the ages.

No Theology.
No Doctrine.
No Dogma.
No Creed.

The moral,
ethical,
just 
and noble foundation
of True Religion
is lodged in 
seeing what's what
and doing what needs to be done about it,
in response to it,
when, where and how it needs to be done,
with the gifts of our Original Nature
and the Innate Virtues
(Specialties, Characteristics)
that are coded into our DNA,
without thought of personal gain,
for no reason beyond the joy of doing it
and the satisfaction of having done it,
in each situation as it arises
for as long as we are alive.

And when we "die"
we are simply transformed
back into the light
from which we came.
