Comment: Wp "A personal god, ... is a deity who can be related to as a person, instead of as an impersonal force, such as the Absolute, "the All", or the "Ground of Being"."

宗教提供的解決法門中,最常見的就是,以皈依於「大我」(人格神)來解決小生命的困頓。除了基督教等一神論者,佛教講求一心念佛、往生西方極樂世界的淨土宗也傾向於此;而具有「教主崇拜」特質的新興宗教亦可歸類於此。
The solution most commonly offered by religion is a belief in something larger than ourselves (a personal god) that resolves the difficulties of us lesser beings. Monotheistic faiths such as Christianity are of this type. And Pure Land Buddhism, with its emphasis on focused chanting of the Buddha's name and its notion of rebirth in the Western Pure Land paradise, also tends in this direction. New religions that stress the adulation of their founder also fall into this category.
