Thank you for the reply.
I do understand you align with Vedanta.
But other schools of thought too are equally valid.
There is no my way or the highway.
At times your opinions sound as if all other methods are "haram" and only Vedanta is " halal"
It defeats the purpose of aligning with Vedanta if other schools of thoughts are considered fixated on God and scriptures created by human insecurity and greed.
At times when we are exploring spirituality be it the Vedanta or any other path or even a new religion, there is a normal tendency to feel that one's path is clearing misconceptions, after all that is what spiritual pursue is all about.
For eg you wrote in another post that you realized you had been ignorant but now you realized you dont want to remain ignorant anymore.
That is the start of any spiritual journey....the Amazing Grace feeling of " I once was lost but now I am found,, was blind but now I see.."..everyone goes through this feeling.
At the same time the human mind has a tendency to hijack its ownself as the Ahamkara wants to remain top gun.
The Ahamkara doesnt want to let the "I am the mind, I am the body. I am the senses " factor disappear.
This is where we start to feel that our path is better than another's path.
Hence you wrote
"When such a universal teaching is available to all humanity, it is paradoxical that many remain fixated on gods and scriptures created by human insecurity and greed"
Its like a person who loves chocolate ice cream and says.." when such an out of the world flavor exists..why are people even eating vanilla ice cream?"
This thought is the Ahamkara which has mutated into a new form, the Spiritual Ego..its a mild delusion actually.
We then start to focus on the "negativity"of other paths without realizing that we are hijacking our own plane.
Its a state all of us go through, usually we come of out it after sometime.
Anyway your understanding of Vedanta is deep, may the force be with you.
Fly your plane and have a safe journey.
