Well my friend ( Do you mind if I call you that) from my own point of view I think that dependence upon a book is tantamount to idolatry and that's exactly the problem we face in the world today. G-D gave us all the wisdom to rise above our base natures and that is what HE intended to do in the first place. All we have to do is listen to HIM within our own hearts because that's the only place HIS WORD is truely written. Books are written for blind men who cannot see.

It's not about philosophy or any of the babble and nonsense of the Greeks and it's not about the gossip heard in the market place. It's about going deep within yourself and finding that quiet center where your soul dwells. In that place there is a pool where truth is revealed to any who seek it. All you have to do is look.
