Hello, Clare!
Thank you for your kind words, and thank you especially for sharing your story. I've not had the pleasure of reading your book, but I think I've come across the title before. I think I'll have to hunt down a copy now!
I love that Krishnamurti quote, I think it captures much of what I'm saying here: a pathless path. In a way, I think I could probably describe this as a path that contains all paths. Of course, that's not to say all paths are good for all people; like diets, certain paths seem to suit some better than others (some paths are even outright toxic for others!). I made my first forays into a vague universalism in order to "defang" the exclusivism I experienced in Mormonism; the stranger realization (at least for me) was something closer to the quote you shared though.
Thanks again for your comment!
