The Nature of a Religious Tradition
• Religion begins in mystery• “Life is a mystery to be lived,
not a problem to be solved.” –Gabriel Marcel
• Asking questions:– “problem” questions > solutions– “mystery” questions > wonder,
awe, wisdom, insight… LIFE!

“Letters to a Young Poet”
• Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves, like locked rooms and like books that are now written in a very foreign tongue. Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps you will then gradually, without noticing it, live along some distant day into the answer.
• Letter Four (16 July 1903)
