'Never leave this doubting attitude in your life
Anywhere,
At anytime,
With whomever it be and
Whatever be that doubt..
That alone is the Right way of progressing in the Path of Spirituality!'"
The Head of a Monastery when told that story to a group of devotees, one of them asked,
“Reverend Sir! If that is so, why the Great People of the world repeatedly preached,
'Believe in God and have Faith in Him!'
Can you explain?"
The Head smiled at him and said,
“Dear! What the Great Men and Women spoke of Faith in God is not in the usual sense we use the word in respect of worldly dealings. Questioning in respect of worldly dealings is the primary duty with us establishing 'what is what' to the core..
