When Hindu study groups fragment over different approaches to the tradition

Our study group has been working through Hindu texts for two years but we're stuck because some of us want to focus on devotional practices while others are drawn to philosophical inquiry and others want more ritual understanding. Every session feels like we're trying to satisfy everyone and satisfying no one, and I'm worried we're going to lose people because we can't find a coherent approach that honors everyone's spiritual hunger.

What we've seen

The group's diverse spiritual appetites are preventing deep engagement with any aspect of Hindu practice.
