Hey this is Leo for actualized.org.

And here I'm going to attempt to explain

all of religion in one video.

one video.

One of the most fascinating questions that we encounter as human beings living this social existence and having this one life that we live through

and we go through and discover all this stuff about what life is, is the existence of religions.

Not just one religion, but many, many, many religions.

And it's very fascinating how

seriously people take their religions, how passionate they are about them,

how they're willing to fight to the death to defend them,

and also how science plays into this, and the whole history of religion.

So in this video, I want to tackle this topic. It's a pretty big topic to tackle and it's going to play out in a much different way than you probably think.

now let me preface by saying that this is my personal perspective.

All right?

This is my personal perspective from a lot of study that I've done and I haven't done studies so much on religions but I've done study on philosophy and I've done study on personal development and most recently I've done a lot of study on consciousness. What is

consciousness and that led me to the study of enlightenment and what is

enlightenment and all of this has very interesting ramifications for my understanding of religions.

In fact, I just came back from an Enlightenment workshop. I spent seven days immersed in a workshop,

mind-blowing, profound realizations that I've had. I'm seeing reality differently now from that

workshop. And I'm seeing religion in a more clear light at least in my opinion and so I

want to just to share some of my insights with you about religion if you're kind of curious about this.

You know, just for curiosity sake. And you know I used to be an atheist for pretty much most of my life ever since I remember
