I suspect this topic will show a lot of different methods of how to study, but that is also the reason for this OP.
Do you have a certain way you study the scripture you believe in?
If you study scripture from other religions, do you use the same method to gain your understanding of the teaching?
Or does the religion/spiritual teaching have its own dedicated way of being studied?
As a sufi i do read all the different islamic texts but they are more of a guide to me than texts i have to believe every single word exactly the way they are written, there is "hidden knowledge" within the text and only reading the text without any form of practice of it will not open the hidden teaching. (hidden teaching is within our heart)
When i read other scriptures than Islamic, i try first to use same form of study as i do in Sufism, but it is not always the way those texts are ment to be understood So then i must use different tools, or even discussion with those who follow the different teachings help to understand better.
Hope you will enjoy this thread
And . NO FIGHTING i will spank you if you fight
