“The first and most important function of religion is to connect you with the mystery of life and the mystery of your own being. When religion fails to do this, it has betrayed its primary mission, and all we are left with is dogma and belief. The churches, synagogues, and temples of all religions are entrusted with this—to interpret the old stories and teachings so they open us to the transcendent mystery of life, not so they confine us in the egoic state through fear, guilt, and repression.”
