Our life experiences,
the things we've learned thus far, continue to influence and color our
perceptions. They provide a basis for the way we interact with life
as a whole. Whether you vehemently deny / reject your previous religion
or you are merely seeking to expand your spiritual consciousness, your
prior and current religion will influence you, subtly or like a sledge
hammer hitting you upside your head.
In recognition of that,
what aspects of that faith did you agree with, or were comfortable with?
This could be teachings, ritual methods, songs, religious holidays, etc.
Remember, be honest with yourself and seriously reflect upon this.
