evangelist; it's that I've found that many people who are in all
other ways ready to make some spiritual progress are blocked by the
idea that K. requires some belief system, and that spirituality in
general has no scientific basis. I just witnessed a guy, who was
constanly mocking religion and sprituality and calling it
superstition, drop off the discussion board so he could "find
himself" through meditation.> Wanting to convince people, in my experience, represents some
> leftover restlessness in myself.If one felt driven to convince people of something, I'm sure that's
true. However, grounding your spiritual experience in good science
may allow you to become the instrument that helps a materialist
fence sitter get on with his/her spiritual work, as in the case
above. Most of us live in a world where we often interact with
other people. If we don't want to share our experiences with others
in an intelligent way, why not just go live in a cave.
Peace and Love,
