abstract	This thesis addresses the idea that we can understand religious precepts as a signpost for the believer or practitioner, so that he can more easily navigate his inner journey, face his life situations and grow in awareness as well as wisdom. The thesis outlines some ethical precepts and codes of conduct, wanted from the devout believer or practitioner. We are researching views and precepts which were prescribed by central figures of Buddhism, Christianity and the Baha'i faith and include the Sufi explanation of inner happiness along with the indian spiritual practice Sant Mat, which supposedly leads practitioners to their Source. We connect goals of chosen religions and claim they are hiding a similar core teaching. We touch upon the social aspect of religions, but primarily we are dealing with the phenomenology of experiencing the divine. We compare conceptions of workings of the world within chosen creeds. We analyze the mystical side of religion as the signpost for self-knowledge through tarot cards, which we research as a tool for introspection, hiding numerous symbols from various religions that are symbolic of the path from ignorance to wisdom; they direct the subject into a deeper understanding of self and his inner world. We therefore take religion as a structure of symbols and directions which leads to the same goal - learning our true nature and self-redemption, through which each individual becomes his own greatest teacher.
