To Be-lieve or Not to Be-lieve

Many of our core beliefs about life and death are derived from religion. They can be either extremely comforting or extremely destructive, and sometimes both at the same time. As well as hope, joy, spiritual restoration, religious structures, both mental and communal, can instill guilt, shame and judgementalism from a young age. Despite the different claims of religions, the mystery of what happens after death remains unconfirmed.

In her new book "What Do I Believe?" Dorothy Rowe divides the political from the personal and warns about power as distinct from compassion. Feeling pressure to defend beliefs can result in offense on others. The choice of meaningful beliefs, religious or philosophical, can pave a path to a restful mind, peaceful co-existence and balanced autonomy.
