Scriptures Not Always Infallible<br><br>-By Swami

Yogananda<br><br>Many people think that what is printed in black and

white is right. Above all, most people believe that

anything wearing the robe of Scriptural authority is

absolutely beyond question. But putting on an outward garb

cannot make one infallible. Writers of Scriptures can

also make mistakes. In order to know the truth of a

doctrine, we must live it and find out if it works or

not—give it the acid test of experience. Let us get out

into the world and compare our religious beliefs with

the religious experiences of true teachers. Let us be

iconoclastic of our own errors that need to be destroyed

within us. We must not harbor an undigested mass of

theology and thus suffer from chronic theological

indigestion.
