Most of you would agree that it is the nature of human mind to develop a set of believes and faith based on the nature of upbringing and childhood experiences. The human mind cannot remain free of such beliefs and impressions. This is true in the material world, as well as in the spiritual world. Based on your early impressions, mostly from your parents, you consider yourself as a Christian or a Hindu or a Muslim or a Budhist or an atheist. Yes, even atheism is also a form of faith.
Now, after growing up, there are two types of people based on how they deal with these set of beliefs or faith. The vast majority of people never question their parents or themselves about the doctrines, the holy scriptures, the historical stories of God, philosophy of after-death heaven and hell etc. They just assume everything to be true and continue to lead the religious life based on their assumptions. They just continue to follow the scriptures and the religious customs based on how they were told by their parents and others. They rarely go into the depth of spirituality by asking about the true spirit or about the true omnipresent formless God that is residing in every heart.
