WHICH RELIGION TO FOLLOW??

I don’t think it’s necessary to pick one religion, but I also think it’s ok if one does, so long as we realize it’s a subjective choice that represents personal comfort for one’s spiritual journey, not a choice of the “only right truth”. I  think the ‘interfaith’ approach is a serious step forward (I’m a bit biased, since I’m soon to be ordained as an interfaith minister, but I was ‘interfaith’ before ‘interfaith’ was a word — brought up Jewish, schooled by eastern-religious Teachers, married to a Protestant minister, and a daughter who’s been dating a Muslim boy from Afghanistan for three years now). Rather than ‘cherry-picking’ though, I would advocate looking all the way into the inner teachings of any of our traditions, and finding that everything is there — the path is the path is the path — just told in different words and stories for different cultures at different time-periods. So follow them all, or follow the one that resonates the best, no real difference. There’s really only one religion. We’re all children of the same divine source, on the road to the same eventual ‘place’ (which of course is not an external location, but an internal state of being.)
