Part of me will always be Baptist, but right now I'm kind of pan-monotheistic with emphasis on Abrahamic traditions, esp Baptist Christianity, Islam, sometimes Orthodox Christianity, Rastafari.

I'm an Asatruar, although a bit more of a lowlander. I'm unaware of any special name for that. You can just call me a Heathen.

Tibetan Buddhism. There are four specific schools of learning/studying/practicing Tibetan Buddhism - Sakya, Nyingma, Kagyu, and Geluk. I practice Geluk, and it's most notable distinction is that His Holiness the Dalai Lama is considered it's temporal and spiritual leader.

There is more specific definition at this site: Buddhism - Foundation for the Preservation of the Mahayana Tradition - and it describes what we do much better than I ever could. :)




Peace,
Mystic

Hinduism / Love. :)

I said "Love" because God is love and love is a uniting factor among all people.

Hinduism is the term given to those following "Sanathan Dharma" which is a way of life where we must live according to righteous conduct; think how our actions affect others etc. "Sanathan Dharma" means "Eternal Religion."

Buddhism, although I am a new convert to this philosophy. I tend to belong to the Theravada sect if you will, although I do believe some of the tantric beliefs. I don't pick a school and stick with it, because I'm a pretty lay person. I want to study all of the schools and gain a better insight. I would also like to study other religions altogether. Hinduism for example keeps drawing my attention, but I don't know where or how to gain proper knowledge on the subject.

Could I ask what that entails? I usually get the picture of a druid from Diablo II or WoW. Not to offend, though. =D

I am still learning a lot about Druidism myself there is still a lot of mystery about who they were.
I’m reading a book called The 21 Lessons of Merlyn by Douglas Monroe From what I gather the Druids had no written history just oral tradition. Passed down from one generation to another. We don’t believe that you can combine any two religions
trained for 12 years learning grammar, hundreds of stories, poems, philosophy, the Ogham tree-alphabet. I’m think I’m going to have some trouble learning the
Ogham alphabet. I think it’s interesting that they taught a series of stories. Kind of like a parable.
I myself am a follower of the Greenman myself.
Sorry to be so vague I’m still learning. :D
