All,
I have been a seeker for a long time. I grew up Catholic, became atheist and then joined various groups including the Hare Krishnas and Eckankar. Now I have started to have this negative feeling when reading religious texts. I don't have a sincere faith or belief in many of the concepts like a God or the different masters or deities. It is too hard for me to believe in this God. I am not sure exactly what I believe in now but it is not some all knowing and all powerful God. I still have other spiritual beliefs such as karma and reincarnation. I used to enjoy the community of a Church or groups listed but it feels wrong now for me to belong to them since I don't share their beliefs. I would like to gain some feedback from others on choosing a path when my beliefs are uncertain. Thank-you, Billy
