And with religion, if you compare various religions and you take good points from various religions, you will be spoiled. If you seek too much honey from various flowers, which are not necessary for you, you will be spoiled by honey. A little bit of honey is enough for us. There is no need to be greedy. If it is true, a little bit of truth, a faint idea of truth is enough. And you should devote yourself to the truth you see completely. Then you will find out the true meaning of the truth.
