It is never a question of belief. The only scientific approach one can take on any matter is whether it is true.

Such words from the Jnanavatar left me breathless when I read them the first time.

They are of such a startling simplicity yet undisputably true. Our beliefs count for nothing, the universe goes on notwithstanding them. Thruths are what they are, they don't need our belief or recognition.

This sentence is invaluable, priceless, of inestimable Worth.

People may not believe in a spiritual reality. Yet such a reality exists, utterly impervious to the beliefs of the skeptics., who usually do nothing to investigate the matter in any depth.
Before Christopher Columbus, people believed the earth was flat. The earth was a geoid, regardless of the common beliefs of that age.

Whenever people tell me: " I do not believe that" I laugh and retort: "the objective reality minds nothing of your beliefs".
