Hi linen. Getting involved in a spiritual group was very helpful for me in my 20s and 30s. Studying a philosophy in-depth can really help broaden and deepen one's understanding and approach to all beliefs. Here's a common thing I hear: Truth is whatever you believe. That's just not the case. Example: The sun rises in the East and there is no other truth, regardless of what I choose to believe. Studying spiritual philosophy in-depth does help one come to see that there is something more to truth than just our ego nature deciding whatever it wants to think. That holds true for most every path, it's a common teaching point in every philosophy.
