Dear atmn
Books,examples,saints,etc can sometimes not true, but they are generated for mankinds to achieve the goal of selfrealisition,to achieve the bliss by using or understanding them. But if u do not respect them u will get nothing.If u r able to achieve the bliss and selfrealisation without any outan source of knowledege , they are nothing for u. But it never happens. So u have to take the help of the books,examples or saints to achieve the goal.so u have to heartly respect them otherwise u will always be far from the goal always discussing weather it is true or false.
