The answer could be all of the above, a few of the above, one of the above or none of the above. In addition, the answer will probably be different at different times.
The point I was trying to make -- obviously not very well -- is that one's true path is not a singular path. It's not like you have one solitary bona fide path and all others are diversions.
Since life is dynamic and marked by change, one static path goes against nature. Me thinks we each have several paths that we follow at different times in our lives and, if we're in balance, each of these paths is true.
I grew up in Christian fundamentalism, went to hell, came back, became a Presbyterian then a Buddhist Presbyterian, and now I'm a profane Presbyterian Zen Taoist -- not that I'm into labels or anything. Here's what I've learned so far: The more you know, the more you know you don't know.

Does my true path know all of this?
