WHAT SATISFIES YOU MORE? - SPIRITUAL OR MOTIVATIONAL BOOKS?





This isn’t meant to be a spiritual write-up actually but a discussion I had with a friend of mine brought it up. On that fateful day, I saw him reading a financial book centered on how to make money. I playfully asked him why he was reading such a book instead of a spiritual book. He then said, “Everyone who chooses to read a particular kind of book has a particular satisfaction he/she derives from reading such a book. Therefore, the satisfaction I derive from reading financial books cannot be compared to that of a spiritual book”. On hearing this, I accused him of being less spiritual. Now my question to the general public is, can your level of spirituality be determined by how well you read spiritual books or better still, if someone doesn’t enjoy reading spiritual books compared to other kind of books, does that mean the person is not spiritual?
