“Buddha didn’t say “Look for the holy book and read on it” but look for a spiritual friend (Ariya):”

  • There were no books to read at the time of the Buddha. Indeed, the Tipitaka or even the suttas were not available in written form. You did not seem to have read my comment. 
  • Writing on that scale became possible about 500 years after Buddha’s Parinibbana. That is when the Tipitaka was written down in Sri Lanka: “Preservation of the Dhamma.”
