Beliefs

A belief is not an idea held by the mind, it is an idea that holds the mind. - Elly Roselle

Belief gets in the way of learning. - Robert Heinlein

Men are most apt to believe what they least understand. - Michel Montaigne

At the core of all well-founded belief, lies belief that is unfounded. - Ludwig Wittgenstein

Belief was immune to logic; it operated by its own laws. - James Siegel

What you believe to be true, is it true? Or do you just believe that it’s true because you were taught that it’s true and never looked any further? - Unknown

The fact that a belief has a good moral effect upon a man is no evidence whatsoever in favour of its truth. - Bertrand Russell

I think it's better to have ideas. You can change an idea. Changing a belief is trickier. Life should be malleable and progressive; working from idea to idea permits that. Beliefs anchor you to certain points and limit growth; new ideas can't generate. Life becomes stagnant. - Rufus

Wishing you a pleasant experience on your spiritual journey.

Namaste 🙏
