Quite often we can put into words things that hold true to the
intellect.  Red is Red and Blue is Blue..unless your name is
JD..joke

But it is conditioning that makes me, you, and the rest of us the way
we are.  Not all sages read the Vedas..many of them didn't even read
shit because they were illiterate.  Definately not all of them found
the same means to God/Truth/Love...as we are all unique.

I haven't myself read the Vedas.  I've read the Upanisads.  I hear
they aren't as rich in Indian culture and the like as the Vedas.  They
definately contain knowledge that men would have died for the
opportunity to see..maybe not nowadays.

I may be a bit confused when it comes to thinking of all that ultimate
truth stuff, but IMO you got to go with what works for you.  Sometimes
that might conflict with others but we must find common ground instead
of looking at all the differences.
