Greetings disciple
I think we agree more than we disagree.

And often times it boils down to the language/words we use that add to confusion.

I never tell anyone to stop seeking truth.

Otherwise their trod would be quite stagnant with no growth.

I think we should try to keep a balance between knowledge and faith...mind and heart/spirit...energy and matter.

Too much of any extreme can be harmful.

My educational background was of the sciences/math(physical/exoteric) and philosopy/religion (spiritual/esoteric).

I started out as an engineering student and ended up with a philosophy/religious studies degree.

Having studied those disciplines helped me recognize the value in both aspects.

As well as the folly.

We should all strive for perfection.

...whatever that means.

Peace
