In my studies of religiology, I have encountered Roman Catholicism, Baptist, Pentecostal, Zen Buddhism, Dào, Theravāda Buddhism, Pure Land Buddhism, Jehovah's Witness, Hinduism, Shintō, Voodoo, Mormonism, Ancient Egyptian, Jainism, Islam, Judaism, Hawaiian Animism, Amerindian Animism, Australian Animism, African Animism, Philippine Animism, Inuit Animism, and Urantia.
 
Theravāda is the prevailing branch of Buddhism in places like Thailand. It relies a lot on chanting in Pāḷi and learning the Pāḷi Canon, the Tipiṭaka (The Three Baskets). Zen and Amidism are of the Mahāyāna branch of Buddhism. All Buddhists practice meditation.
 
Zen Buddhism is the sect of Buddhism which has been really well-known in the West. Zen tries to be non-logocentric, as it steers away from words. Riddles called ''kōan'' are used to break rationality. Simplicity is key, as Zen absorbed from Dào (Taoism) in ancient history.
 
Some people are seeking a universe without drudgery. In the sect of Pure Land Buddhism, or Amidism, adherents believe in a universe called Pure Land, where there is no sickness or suffering and where one could attain Enlightenment much easier. In our universe, one would repeat the name of Amida Buddha, so as to attain Pure Land when one dies. Amida Buddha is different from the historical Gautama Buddha, who is different again from Maitreya Buddha, the buddha of the future.
 
''Buddhist Dictionary'' by Nyānatiloka Mahāthera is a good resource for a deep understanding of Buddhism.
 
''Bhagavad-Gītā As It Is'' by A.C. Bhaktivedānta Swāmi Prabhupāda is an excellent, notable Hindu work that I have read some years ago. (I am just exploring.) Hinduism has a divine Trinity, as do many Christian sects, except ones like Jehovah’s Witnesses and Mormonism.
 
A language having a spirit is a notion amongst Animists like Japanese and Eskimos. I do notice that a person engulfed in the world of the English language has a similar worldview of other English-speakers. ''Kotodama'' is the Japanese mystical belief in the power of words. The universe is multidimensional, and as yet, generally people do not really understand such things.
 
Some people do, though, think that religion is just psychology and art. One requires a balance between the rational sequential left brain and the holistic parallel right brain. (Incidentally, the left brain controls the right side of the body, and the right brain controls the left side of the body.)
 
Anyway, the Tetrahedron and the Bucky Ball may be crucial in understanding my religious and numerological existence. ''Synergetics 1'' and ''2'' by Buckminster Fuller are a novel geometric outlook on science, religion, and life. I first encountered this literature in the main public library of Lulu Island during my teenage years, and its esoteric ideas have intrigued me all my life.
