Re: "The Knowledge Book" Is it a cult?

Alex45, assuming what you wrote is serious:

1. Everybody seeks knowledge to find happiness.
- Do they? Or do happy, and sad, people enjoy exploring the world and its knowledge?

2. When there is light, how can there be darkness?
-Any non-dual type will tell you that light and darkness co-create each other. By mentioning light, you've created the idea of darkness. Is this perhaps another spiritual trick? "I've got the light and you're in the dark"

3. Therefore...
-there is no connection between the sentences here, yet you use "therefore"

4. If one wants happiness, one should look within, for happiness is not found externally
- So what? "Keep quiet"? Why are you posting on forums then? Is it your job to "raise the vibration" or something?

5. With this in mind, one can be more on guard against all the harmful pseudo forms of knowledge that bring one only deeper into darkness
- With what in mind? And don't you mean the heart? I'm certainly feeling more on guard

6. It is not with the mind one can know but rather with the heart
- So stop critical thinking, and embrace an emotion-based intuition that is rootless without external sources of input and authority(guru, group etc). For example "I feel deeply in my heart that Alex45's comments are rooted in a delusional spiritual arrogance and immaturity. The words just have a smell to them that real truth doesn't have. You can argue with me, but not this sense I have in my heart. The heart doesn't lie". Only someone with authority in a spiritual hierarchy would be able to get away with this. Otherwise you can simply say "Happytown's just projecting. He's mistaken his heart for his mind".
