Western religions follow the NPC path. Structured, with clear scripts to follow. There’s a set of rules, rituals, and guidelines handed down, and your journey is more or less laid out for you: obey, worship, follow the commandments, and aim for salvation. It’s all about obedience as the primary directive, akin to following a strict NPC script.Eastern religions, though, are more like open-world games. Instead of sticking to a predefined path, it’s about levelling up your own way, with no single "right" path to enlightenment. The focus is on realization, inviting players to embark on an inner journey toward understanding their true nature and unity with the cosmos. There’s guidance, but you’re free to explore and discover your own path to wisdom, enlightenment, fulfilment, and bliss—crafting a unique narrative instead of adhering to a single, predetermined script.
East gets west and west gets east sometimes. Enjoy your pursuit in self mastery.
>>39122745>Eastern religions, though, are more like open-world gamesThis is where you messed up. Eastern religions are not unique. In the countries where those religions are practiced, you have so called Western ones and some that defy classification. China has a unique brand of Christianity that seems to be almost entirely Chinese in character. That is a thing that blows your whole thread out of the water.
