The line of inquiry essentially asks us to imagine ourselves in another life, another body, in another culture, memory of current beliefs erased. No Jesus, Buddha, Krishna, Allah or any such symbol we have been conditioned to believe in by society, by environment, by the family we were born into.
If the mental concept is erased, beginning anew, what represents the truth we would imbibe then (which we can embrace even now), that that is unchanging, which requires no church, mosque or temple?
I've received some great poems affirming faith in a this or that belief system without examining truth minus conditioned fetters. For this contest, they won't do.
