Personal Application of the testimony of Joseph Smith
The key insight is to read Joseph Smith's testimony with a focus on personal application rather than as a distant observer. The idea is to seek a spiritual experience while studying the Book of Mormon and apply the experiences Joseph Smith shared to one's own spiritual journey. For instance, when Joseph Smith described a light appearing in his room, the encouragement is to start the process by calling upon God and seeking His light. The focus is on observing the personal growth in spiritual understanding and clarity, rather than achieving absolute certainty about specific details. The increasing illumination and clarity through spiritual experiences will provide deeper insights into the Book of Mormon.
