Hi. Sounds to me you were born more Left brain dominant...so you
have more critical thinking. It's just how you were made. :)
I personally believe in,"Seeing is believing."

Sure, use multiple sources you trust to inspire you to look further.
The ones I trust are the ones that went within and had direct experiences of the Divine.
So, who are they? (Not New Agers if you'd rather not), St John of the Cross, St Theresa of Avila, St. Catherine of Sienna,
Rumi, Guru Nanak,
Mirabai, Kabir, Tulsidsas...Hafiz, too many to mention!

You know there was a doctor around 1899 that was fascinated with this stuff -
You can order his book online; I highly recommend it for a new 'seeker'.
"Cosmic Consciousness'' by Richard M. Bucke.

Eventually, your will begin the Journey Within...meditation ---or simply sitting alone in complete stillness for long periods.
Why ...because direct experience ends doubt and speculation.
And silence is the key that opens the door to ''other things''...rather than the 'worldly stuff'.
All my experience, that is.
JASG and I are on the same page 99% of the time.

Prepare yourself for the coming astral journey of death by daily riding in the balloon of God-perception.
Through delusion you are perceiving yourself as a bundle of flesh and bones, which at best is a nest of troubles.
Meditate unceasingly, that you may quickly behold yourself as the Infinite Essence, free from every form of misery. ~Paramahansa's Guru's Guru
