[I am a born Hindu, no Hindu scriptures or other religion's book completely give all the answers I need regarding my mission in this life and I can't blindly believe in any books written 2-3k years ago. Can I get liberation without following anyone?]
Swāmi Replied:- If you follow the sharp logic of your intelligence while reading the scriptures, selecting good statements of God and rejecting bad statements inserted by the bad followers, you are following the path with full independence. If you leave the path, it will be very tiring job to reach the goal. If you follow the correct path by taking twists and turns wherever necessary, the right goal can be reached. Following the path blindly is one extreme and creating own path is another extreme. Following the path with open eyes is the middle golden path. “Open eyes” means opening the intelligence with sharp analysis throughout the journey. Such middle path will reduce your unnecessary strain in discovering your own new path. The existing middle path is 90% correct. You can add the rest 10% corrections so that 90% of your energy is saved, which can be concentrated in the effort of journey. The 90% correctness of the path is due to the human incarnation or Sadguru, who established any specific religion. The 10% wrong nature of the path is due to the insertions made by the ignorant followers. You can filter the inserted impurities and use the purified material instead of creating entirely another new pure material.
