I agree. And it seems to me, the older the text, the better. It feels like the opposite in the US. People don't generally honor ancient texts. Also, it feels difficult to get people on stacker to look through a spiritual lense. I used to be very scientific in my thinking. Finding my spiritual connection has been a key part of my healing and expansion. I never thought much about how important the tears were in my journey.
US is the specimen of modern culture and I'm okay with their always forward looking attitude. But, they can, no one can, never leave spiritualism as part of their life. Spirituality isn't limited to ancient texts, it can be found in everything.
I personally know a lot of wealthy Americans who found their love to spirituality in some modern objects.
All beautiful objects may lead to purgation of soul and tears are the best of them all.

That makes sense. How could it not be part of everything.

When somone asks me what to read for the purgation of soul (to be a spiritual being), I often recommend to study renaissance literature in English.
Shakespeare's four greatest tragedies, Marlowe's Doctor Faustus and Million's Paradise Lost should be the first to go through.

Interesting. I never would have guessed. My spiritual journey has primarily been informed through experience. I am not very good at studying to learn. I have had to really walk through the flames on my own. Lots of shadow work.

It's better to read but it's the best to learn from experiences. So, I don't insist you read anything at all.
