What shaped you—before you knew you were being shaped?

Rhythms of prayer. Sacred language murmured in dim rooms. Rituals that bound time and space into something more than daily life. Whether religion arrived through church bells, incense, holy books, or silence—what formed us early remains, often invisibly, as part of who we are.

Today, we explore this inner terrain—how religion, when deeply woven into our upbringing, becomes part of our very structure. Not just something we believe in, but something we become—psychologically, spiritually, even physically.

And as we explore this shaping, we ask: What does it mean to reflect on it later? Can we ever truly unweave those threads? Or are we forever marked—not only by belief but by the experience of belief itself?
