Jainism
It is based on codes of conduct among which are:
• Nonviolence
• Vegetarianism
• Meditation
• Karma
The greatest sin of Jainism is to harm a living being.
Of which I agree with nonviolence and vegetarianism is fine with me but I do not put it as a requirement in my religion to not exclude people who are already accustomed to eating meat.
Sounds good to me meditation practice because through it we can find inner peace, forgetting the problems that surround us as we focus on the present moment, in a sensation, an image or sound, with meditation no problems, negative emotions or resentment. With meditation simply is a joy a very intense peace, which is the natural state of human beings, when we are not prey to thoughts.
Taoism
His teachings are based on the concept of absolute unity and simultaneously mutable called Tao, which forms the supreme reality and cosmological and ontological principle of all things.
Subsequently, Taoism mixed with elements of Confucianism, Buddhism and folk religion. The particular form of Taoist religion was brought to Taiwan 300 years ago is typical of this tradition. The most distinctive feature of current practice is the worship of the ancestors, together with Taoist deities, which shows the clear element traditionalist of Confucianism and religious cult of Asian mythical beliefs, which both were invalid for old thinkers Taoists as Chuang Tzu.
Taoism establishes the existence of three forces: one passive, one active and one third, conciliatory. The first two simultaneously oppose and complement each other, ie they are absolutely interdependent and function as a unit. They are the yin (passive force / subtle, feminine, wet ...) and yang (active force / concrete, male, dry ...). The third force is the Tao, or superior force that contains them.
With respect to Taoism I not agree in worship by the ancestors because in my religion we are guided by the Bible and it tells us of a jealous GOD and we should not to worship anything but Him.
Buddhism
Among the bases or precepts are the following:
• Respect life.
• Avoid taking what is not given.
• Maintain proper sexual behavior, which is not harmful to others or to us.
• To speak to way correctly, do not lie.
• Avoid taking intoxicants that negatively alter the mind.
I agree with these precepts as they have much resemblance to the word of the Bible, especially the Ten Commandments.
My religion as a guide basically takes the word of the Bible based primarily on his ten commandments and the teachings that we left our Lord Jesus Christ and also incorporating certain practices like meditation and other help which serve us to improve our quality of life and lead us to be better people hence the name of religion "The new World"
