Dear Vallath Nandakumarji:
I feel that you are being too severe on Scriptures. Scriptures are
wonderful, they record the revealed Truth of God. They prepare you on
your way to salvation in God. I imagine that an analogy would be
appropriate here. Suppose you are in love, and are experiencing love,
would you like to give up on reading love poems? You would not, because
by reading the poems, your find a voice for your love. The Scriptures are
the same way.
With best regards,
Dhruba.
