I watched the Forbidden Kingdom movie yesterday, starring Jet Lee and Jacky Chan. I found a good quote there when they teach Kung Fu to their apprentice: “Learn the way, then find your own way”. What is so special about this quote?

Many people talking about their faith, religion, beliefs, but only from books written or words spoken by other people claimed to be the expert. And yet they are led to the blind fanaticism disregarding the truth from the original ultimate source, God.
Event the said original scriptures might be corrupted by the political events happened that time when the scriptures was written.
There’s a lot of scriptures wasn’t the real authentic inscription of the chosen by God, the Prophet. Instead their friend did this, by means influenced by the political powers back on that day. Remember, the Prophet friends is not as holy as the Prophet himself.

Some may have their religion or belief by selection once they are grown up.
But a bigger percentages of people are having religion or belief by birth, only because you were born in your family having that religion or belief.

I do believe we must learn it, but after that find your own way to complete the study by searching for the Divine, the spiritual way.
Religion and beliefs are only basic study, don’t stop and wait .. but experience it in life.
This doesn’t mean to leave your religion or abandon your beliefs but to enrich it with better understanding of life and afterlife, universalities, pluralism, leaving behind the blind fanaticism and the marketing messages found in the religion (i.e. take this religion as your faith and all your sins will be erased .. that easy? So I can change my religion every month and then I become a holy man with crystal clear karma .. ha .. ha .. ha ..)
How to do this? Ask it by yourself to the God, the ultimate source of knowledge.
How to reach God? Prayer, Meditation, making contact to your higher Self, then you will find your own way.
