Duality and Faith

Faith is generally understood as belief in some other, greater outside source that is beyond our experience of life. Having faith in a doctrine that you have come to believe is true may have some value and may be comforting but such dualistic thinking creates separation and suffering. There is a different kind of faith based on the experiential. Faith in the interconnected and inter penetrated oneness of life.
