Iqukethe izinto zobuciko zenkolo ezivela kumasiko enkolo ahlukene kanye nezikhathi emibukisweni enikeza ukuqonda kwenkolo ngokwengqikithi. Ama-artefacts asebenza ngokwezemfundo kodwa abuye ahunyushwe ngokwesiko/ngokuzinikela yilabo abangaphakathi kwemiphakathi yezenkolo efanele.

Lokhu kusho ukuthi bavula indawo yokusebenzelana ngokomoya nokukhulekela. Lokhu kwenzeke ngokwengxenye ngenxa yokuzibandakanya okubonakalayo kwemiphakathi yezenkolo ekwakhiweni kwesigcinamagugu, ikakhulukazi izinkolo eziyisithupha zomhlaba enziwa eScotland: ubuBuddha, ubuKristu, ubuHindu, ubuSulumane, ubuJuda nobuSikh.

Kusukela ekuqaleni, inhloso yayihlanganisa okungaphezu kokuhlanganiswa kwezinto zobuciko ukuze kwakhiwe indawo eguquguqukayo yenkolo ephilayo. Ukufakwa kwama-partitions, ama-plinths nezinye izisetshenziswa ezifanayo kuvumela izindawo zokubuka ezifanele futhi kwakhuthaza ukusebenzelana okungokomoya.

Imnyuziyamu ibaluleke kakhulu njengophawu lwezingxoxo ezixube izinkolo. Kusukela ekuqaleni kwayo, imiphakathi yezenkolo ngabanye kanye nabeluleki bezemfundo kwaxhunyanwa nabo kuzo zonke izinqubo ezihlukahlukene, okuhlanganisa ukutholwa kwezinto zobuciko ezimelela izinkolo zabo noma izinqubo, okwakufinyelelwa kuzo emhlabeni wonke.

Nakuba inkolo yayicutshungulwa kabanzi ngokomlando nangokwezindawo, umnyuziyamu nawo wawugxile ekuhlangenwe nakho kwezinkolo ezisebenzayo phakathi nempilo yaseScotland. Kwenziwa izinqumo ezihlakaniphile mayelana nokuhlanganisa izinkolo eziphikisana nokumelwa okungokomfanekiso noma kwezithombe.

Umnyuziyamu ophilayo wenkolo

Inkolo iyohlale iyindaba ephikisanayo. Isimo se-St Mungo njengemnyuziyamu ephilayo yezenkolo sesenze ukuba ihlaselwe, nokungaboni ngaso linye ngemibuzo emayelana nokumelwa. Ukugxekwa kokukhishwa ngaphandle kwezinkolo ezithile, njenge-Baha'i, noma ukuntula kwazo ukumeleleka emnyuziyamu wenkolo akunakugwenywa, kodwa kuye kwabhekwana nazo eziphakamisweni zemibukiso yesikhashana.

Kanjalo futhi nokuhlolwa kwezici ezimbi kakhulu zenkolo kuhlanganise neqhaza layo empini nokucindezelwa kwamaqembu amancane. Esinye sezimo ezibucayi kakhulu zalokhu kwakuhilela i- ukuchithwa kwesithombe semyuziyamu sikaShiva ngomvangeli ongumKristu, ephethe ibhayibheli esandleni - "isikhali" sakhe asithandayo.

Ukuzibandakanya kwezenkolo emhlabeni wonke ekuqoqweni kwemnyuziyamu akukusha, kodwa okuhlukile ngempela nge-St Mungo indlela eguquguqukayo nebonisanayo lapho imiphakathi yezenkolo yendawo yaba yingxenye yokubunjwa kwalokho isigcinamagugu esesikumelele ngokomqondo. Lokhu kuboniswa ingxenye yesibili yesihloko sayo esithi: Religious Life and Art - okungukuthi, izinto ezisetshenziswa abantu ngabanye ekukhulekeleni kwabo kwansuku zonke.

Umnyuziyamu wathintana nomphakathi ngamunye ukuze uxoxe ngokutholwa kwemisebenzi okholweni lwawo, ukuthi kufanele iboniswe kanjani, nezinye izindaba ezibalulekile.
