‘Have faith’ is a mantra frequently promoted by religious leaders.  Another similar spiritual expression is ‘only believe’.  While those may have a small element of truth in them, the fact is that mere faith and blind belief are not enough. 

In order to aspire higher, your spiritual task is developing doubt.  That’s done via close self-questioning such as:   Why am I here? . . . What is the purpose of my life? . . . How can I be a better person? . . . What do I need to release in order to progress? 

It is the summoning of doubt which opens our eyes, our mind, our heart.
