Those of a
mystical bent of mind can read a yogic spirituality into the Bible or the Koran, claiming
these books reflect an understanding of Karma, reincarnation or even subtle yogic
practices. Even if they are right in some
instances, this does not change the fact that the great majority of people in these
religions do not see such teaching there.
A facile synthetic vision can read a deeper spirituality
into the symbols of the Book of Mormon, the preaching of fundamentalist Christians, or
various recent New Age channeled books, or even works of science fiction.
