I have read a lot of spiritual books. When I read the review on a book if it sounds interesting I get it. If it doesn't I don't. In reading a book I don't take everything that I read as the truth. I weigh it with my heart and only the things that makes sense to me get put in my collection of truths (my truths). The rest are put on a "shelf" in my head for further study. They will always be on that "shelf" but not in my collection.
But further down the road, I might get some more information regarding those things on the "shelf" that brings new light to the subject. Then I take said item from the "shelf" examine it and decide if it is worthy to be added to my collection of truths or not.
I don't take anyone's truths as my own unless it resonates with me. I understand we all are on a spiritual path and there are countless paths all leading to the same Source.
In further explanation, I celebrate differences. And I don't congregate with people who think exactly like me.
