This is a message posted in reference to spiritual schools but really it applys to all knowledge because that is precisely what we are in. A spiritual school.

Becoming attached to information from any book in the field of subjective knowledge can be harmful to spiritual aspirations. A feeling of a fish released from a very tempting and well made hook is how I felt after dislodging that type of information from myself through analysis and meditation. Obviously alot of material exists that is similar so we should be very cautious of what we feed ourself.

"Yes it is good that we can find bits and pieces in various places that help us continue on learning and growing. If you follow the link provided and read the information however we can learn to decipher between the different types of schools.

The danger is that most schools present lots of theories without talking about the fundamentals of conciousness. That is they try to say 'what to think' instead of understanding 'how to think.' We need to understand the mechanics of thought inorder for us to enter into direct experience of deeper things. Such as the structure of the soul or universe.

Really this is the study of Kabbalah, the tree of life. The Bible for instance is completely kabbalistic to the one who understands the symbolism. Unfortunately people read religious texts literally and fall into intellectual theories and dogmas. If one learns about how they think they can begin to pierce into intuitive knowledge that has been available since the beginning. The ego doesnt like this obviously because it leaves them out. It is saying i dont need all this silly intellectualism because i practice and know how to use my conciousness. Through learning how to use the conciousness we have the key to all doors."
