Christians rely on the Bible to provide them with the necessary rules for living without realizing that the whole book is more of a set of guidelines - true spirituality is finding your own interpretation of faith and beliefs, rather than conforming to a preset standard of faith and beliefs. Difficult to do sometimes because it requires thinking and acting, two of our society's lesser enjoyed pastimes. That's why the road to true spirituality is paved with good intentions and spiritual benchmarks, while Enlightenment sits calmly by reading a book and waiting for the wanderer to stumble upon him.
Jesus was a spiritual being, the son of God some might say, but he didn't fit in a box. What does this tell you?
heart.
