Karma

I have always been a firm believer in Karma!  I was taught from a young age to strive to always do what is right.  If I didn't do what was right it would come back and bite me in the butt later in life.  In our minds we know what is right from wrong before we make an action.  I find it fascinating that Buddhism and other religions also believe in karma.  I grew up thinking I didn't have any religious beliefs, but as I study and learn more about each religion it turns out I have a little bit of each religion in my everyday traditions!  :)

Buddhism

We are finally learning about Buddhism!  Buddhism is the only religion I was looking forward to learning about when I started this class.  I was scared to take this class at first because I knew absolutly nothing at all about any religion except a little bit about Buddhism.  I have really enjoyed learning about the five different religions so far, I have found something that I loved about each religion.  Buddhism still remains my favorite so far.  I love the views they have and their goal to reach pure happiness and for the world to come together as one.

Interesting!

I thought that it was interesting that the Hindu's practice Yoga!  It made me wonder where Yoga originated.  India has the largest number of Hindu people, and the website I found said Yoga started in India!
