The Jeet Kune Do Approach to Spirtuality
"Take what works for you, leave the rest. "
Yes, not just satisfied being a techno-geek, I'm a Bruce Lee geek as well. After reading "The Tao of Jeet Kune Do", I was floored by what a deep thinker he was.
He founded the martial art after he found that the kung fu he learned was limiting to him when used in practice. So, he decided to study many martial arts and incorporate the techniques that fit his strengths, body type, and philosophy -- and leave the techniques that didn't.
It turns out that Jeet Kune Do is more a philosophy than a strict martial art that teaches you to try as many different martial arts as possible and use the techniques that work for you. So that each person ends up developing their own version of the martial art that completely fits their strengths, beliefs, and approach.
I believe our spirtual journey is a deeply personal one. An infinite God can never be described by a single finite book or theology. So, using the Jeet Kune Do philosophy, study as many religions and beliefs as possible. You'll find most have the same basic beliefs of God, but each one approaches God from a different perspective.
Incorporate what rings true to your heart, and leave the rest.
