Thank you for visiting our forum! -I follow the path of the Buddha, but struggle horribly with the immaterial part. I too am a skeptic, with dhw. -I'll leave you with one of my favorite lines from the Upashinads:-"As a tethered bird flies this way and that, and comes to rest at last on its own perch, so the mind, tired of wandering about . . . settles down in the Self"-Easwaran, Eknath; Eknath Easwaran (2009-06-01). The Upanishads (Classic of Indian Spirituality) (p. 122). Nilgiri Press. Kindle Edition.
