" "According to the book Good without God by Greg M. Epstein, the humanist chaplain at Harvard University, the fourth biggest life adherence in the world today after Christianity, Islam, and Hinduism is now humanism. Humanism is the idea that we do not need religion in order to be good. It differs from atheism in the sense that humanists believe that there is a “God,” but He’s certainly not the judgmental, angry being that many religious texts make Him out to be. Instead, to a humanist, “God” might be the universe, or the connectedness of life on Earth, or spirit. Humanism is opening up a new spiritual path for people who want to reject the Brules of religion but who don’t embrace atheism. One billion humanists now exist on the planet, and their numbers are growing.

At the end of the talk, Srikumar was asked, repeatedly, to define which mental model was the very best to have. This is what he said: The most important belief you can possess is the belief that the universe loves you. If you believe that the universe is always working in your favor, you will have a beautiful experience in this life. The word universe is replaceable, by the way, with whichever word you deem most appropriate. After hearing Srikumar say that this was the ultimate mental model out of the billions of other singular beliefs one could choose, I knew I had to conclude this special sequence with the blessing.
