IMPORTANCE OF RELIGION IN LIFE

Father George Rutler said It is not easy to live as being uncertain, unsure, and left wondering. Everyone needs a way, path, or direction, which he used to follow to get peace of mind and soul. Religion is very important in the people's lives as it provides directions to follow to induce peace in life. Religion is a relation of human beings with spirituality, usually regarded as God, Holy, divine, absolute, blessed, and especial admirations. This connection is having some faiths and beliefs that people like to follow, such as concerns about life and fate on life after death. In traditional religions, this affection is expressed between one's relations towards spirits or gods.

In contrast, in humanistic form, religion is a connection among one's relation to humanity or the world naturally. In some religions, texts are considered holy spirits, and people use to invest their time to learn those holy texts. Some practices which believers use to participate, such as mediation, rituals, or prayers. Some constitute religious life such as right beliefs, visit religious institutes, moral conduct, and worships.

George Rutler added On this planet called earth, some people follow different religions and some of the most followed religions are Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, Sikhism, Judaism, Scientology, and traditional Chinese religion. In Christianity, it is the belief that Jesus is the holy man who used to sacrifice himself to eliminate corruption and connect humans with God. At the beginning of human history, this event was announced so that even Chinese tradition knowing about it. In sociology, religion is defined as a system of blessed beliefs and religious practices in both forms, such as tangible or intangible. In society, religion has dual roles, such as an ideology and an institute. Today religion is shaped as an institutionalized form. If we understand religion more broadly, then the following are some important points that benefit society.

IDENTITY OF CULTURE

Religion plays a vital role in identifying a person's culture and traditions because every religion has its methodologies, traditions, festivals, and customs. These traditions and culture, which are in both forms such as tangible and intangible, become the country's heritage. Believers of every religion adopt that religion's culture, which becomes their identity to say that religion has a great contribution in protecting and reforming the heritage of the state. Religion also induces the element of diversity in the country.

ETHICS AND VALUES

The main essence of religion is its ethical values. Every religion has its ethical framework and moral values, which people apply in their day-to-day life. These ethical norms and moral values help in developing good deeds to build the character of a person. Religion works as an agency for socialization. Therefore, religion helps spread positive values among the people, such as love, respect, peace, and harmony.

CONNECTION WITH SPIRITUALISM

Father George said In daily routine, people forget spirituality because they were so busy fighting quest for economic and materialistic objects. Religion is the only solution as it plays a vital role in building a connection with divine and blessed spirits. The religion believes that there is supreme and spiritual energy that monitors our daily lives. We can say that religion is the one that develops spiritual bonds in the form of hymns, chants, and prayers, etc.

HUMAN WELFARE

Every religion has its philosophy that promotes human welfare and wellbeing in its way. If we see, Christianity then attiring human dignity, following justices, and distributing resources are the main goals in its welfare approach. Christian ideology believes in personal charity to help the poor, widows, and orphans.

A SENSE OF PURPOSE

Religion gives purpose to life. It helps us to find out the reasons that why we exist. It defines goals and aims in our lives. It guides to deals with the depressing moments of life as it gives hope and light to move forward. It avoids stress and anxiety, so life becomes more healthy and peaceful.

 ADOPT A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE.

#Father #George #Rutler said religion also focuses on the health of an individual. It describes such a lifestyle that makes an individual healthy by satisfying its materialistic and spiritual needs. To fulfill economic issues, it defines and sets the earning standards, while spirituality focus on prayers, hymns, and chants to nourish the eternal spirit. In our life religion is clearing our minds and focused on our wellbeing.

SOCIAL SOLIDARITY

Every religion has the spirit of promoting brotherhood. It establishes the element of trust among people by giving value to promises and commitments. It focuses on doing good behavior with the people you meet in your life. It also guides us to help our friends, brother, or any society that needs your attention.

MENTAL PEACE

Father George Rutler said We, as humans, use to live very uncertain life.  We fight a war for our survival and face insecurities, danger, and uncertainty. Religion is the ultimate power that encourages and consoles us in our hard time by providing us mental peace. Religion gives our mind the shelter of peace and emotional support to develop hope in our life. Religion eliminates the evilness of fear; defeat and depression form our minds to become healthier and have positive thoughts in it.
