Non-western religions are very unique in how they practice their beliefs, especially when they are compared to the western religions that surround us. I was interested in learning about Hinduism and Buddhism due to the nature that they are so different than Christianity and Judaism. The main part of Non-western religions that intrigues me the most is the idea of a cyclical view of time. Growing up, I was raised in a Christian home, where the view that I was taught was a linear view of time. Seeing that the non-western religions view time as nonlinear and they believe in reincarnation gave myself another view on different religions. The idea of Karma and endless rebirths is an fascinating subject. I would love to learn more about the Buddhist and Hindu religions. I also found the idea of being polytheistic, worshipping multiple gods, interesting. Shiva, the God of sex, death, and rebirth is by far the most interesting God to me because this god deals with the nonlinear view of time. I enjoyed looking at the other types of religions all around the world because they give you perspective on what you are practicing in your religion and a different view on what you could be practicing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
