[quote:Anonymous Coward 523151:MV82NDc1MjFfOENBODVDMEE=] "For far too many people, spirituality consists of reading esoteric books. They do not understand a great deal of what they are reading and it is all of little use to them because it is all merely theory - theories that are not always very accurate or even contradictory at that - of which they can make no sense. But what does it matter? And so they continue to devour their books. When will they understand that spirituality is about choosing a few methods and studying those well and putting them into practice. Because what really matters is life, the divine life human beings must live. Divine life will bring them all the knowledge of Heaven and earth. People who are content with just reading books are wasting their time. Even if they are able to explain the contents perfectly, they are fully aware that behind the explanations lurks a void, because no love, no light, no deep understanding emanates from them. Love and light are not obtained by reading but by applying the rules of initiatic science day to day."
