There is the temple of nature & many different festivals of light ...some people prefer the sit down in the pew with legs firmly closed among other firmly closed things ...and others just celebrate in the streets and make their own color . But its this universal fascination with light & color which is the one major sense of the world we derive over 80% of all our experience from . So its perfectly natural that the greatest majority of our stories contain the metaphors of "seeing" which are synomous with knowing & understanding especially religion . Or having a good ear , there's the other metaphor for being in tune or carrying a tune hearing the call ! ...all comes out of the senses combined with the body of nervous system . theatlantic.com Different strokes for different folks, some people are unable to learn this the prejudices are to built in ...but even the poor here can have a good time and "see & ride the Holy light" (Reminds me , think I'll send some shoes to Haiti ...) Smile and the whole world smiles with you , its not a religious thing necessariliy but always its a "Human" thing . This image has been resized. Click this bar to view the full image.
