5 years late to the topic at hand, thank you for reviving it to the recent posters. Many of us would have read about Taras Bulba upon encountering that unknown name in the readings. The suite of reactions is already outlined above.
My only addition now is: hundreds of pages of readings that resonate, that make me feel enlightened, and I still go bananas over the small stuff that raises questions about the clarity of the channellings. I have come to see my own scepticism and that of others as a necessary tool -- to arrive where I/we have, outside of both mainstream religious thought and mainstream atheism/agnosticism, required a questioning attitude all along. However, it is sad that I have to carry this tool with me each and every day. Perhaps it is time to take a leap of faith. I've used the tool, time to put it down more now.
