Religions.

                                   Religions
      In this chapter, I think it should be described a modicum about the basic principles of the main religions. The reason it should be described is the men and children, the Buddhists and others to observe each religion by comparing and by developing consideration knowledge, and to criticize and discriminate truth and false, since childhood.
     In the academic study of religion as a phenomenon in history the term ‘religion’ can be considered in its different aspects: as an inner experience, as theology, or intellectual formulation of doctrine, as a basis or source of ethics and as an element in culture.
       Different scholars have given different views and opinions of its nature and meaning. According to Aldous Huxley, religion is, among other things, a system of education, by means of which human beings may train themselves, first to make desirable changes in their own personalities and in society, and second, to heighten consciousness and so establish more adequate religions between themselves and the universe of which they are parts.
   Modern India philosophers like Dr. Radhakrishnan, have expounded the theme that religion is not a set of doctrines but that it is experience. And religious experience is based on the realization of the ‘presence of the divine in man. ‘H.G. Wells says ‘religion is the central part of our education that determines our moral conduct’. The German philosopher, Kant, stated that ‘religion is the recognition of our moral principles as laws that must not be transgressed.’
      The Buddha’s message as a religious way of life: “Keeping away from all evil deeds, cultivation of life by doing good deeds and purification of mind from mental impurities.” For our purposes, religion may be defined in a very broad sense as a body of moral and philosophical teachings and the acceptance with confidence of such teachings.
     In this present world, men can be able to chooses as one’s wish and take refuges religion what is one appreciates freely. Regarding about it, men are taking refuge various religion, such as Hinduism, Buddhism, Islam, Christianity, Judaism, Jainism and so on. However, there are just four religions, which the great power and many million people are taking refuge. They are;
       (1) Hinduism,
       (2) Buddhism,
       (3) Christianity and
       (4) Islam.
I will mentioned it more and later. Be patient me. 
May all of you be happy and peaceful in your mind and body!
