Deconstructing Religion

Time and again, the purpose of faith, the reason to follow a religion. Issues, questions that stir and shake the very cores of our conscience rise. I have no incisive knowledge, no great awareness to sermonise. All my faculties of reasoning, analysis, understanding and sense, morality and ethics, can gather is that religion is what one is. It means an individuality is religion, one's sensibilities, one sense for justice, one's compassion, all of this comprises religion.

I don't think one needs to study religious scriptures, The Quran , The Holy Bible, The Vedas, The Guru Granth Sahib to understand religion. A pure, noble, just conscience in every human being is that human being's religion.
