After going to war and being in the middle of the woods, we encounter a tale that is refreshing and provides a breath of air to our minds. In this story we find Pi or Pistine, but he prefers Pi. The beginning of the book we find ourselves reading his naration as a grown man. He recounts his life as a boy later on in the book. Whats facinating is his view on life. He considers himself a Hindu, Muslim and a Christian. This is amazing since the root of his belief is that the love for God should have no boundaries or separation, for loving God has no name and requieres only true love. This is so interesting to me because it has been through BIC that I have been able to experience all of these other religions around me. I've learned that indeed, loving God is what is essencial, it doesnt matter what denomination one is. It was in World Cultures as well where we learned that all of these religions have the same roots. Pi seems to understand this notion, which is why he is happy with his view on life.
