Truth
The ultimate discovery
As I was writing this article I thought I’d hold back because of how profound and unbelievable this topic is and also because I was scared to explain it.
But…..
I realized in order for myself and to help people live the best life purpose possible nothing can be omitted.
Because anything less than the truth is not the truth. I would be doing a disservice to myself, other people, and society if it could help.
I’ve thought about how people think it’s great if you know certain things. Knowing any sort of fact is commendable by others but if I tell people I know what is called “Truth” I would be mocked or dismissed. That it is arrogant to say you know such a thing.
The thing is though….
You can know it too.
I think we can agree that society has always lagged behind those who helped move it forward. It was certain people throughout history that had such significant influence that they reshaped the world. The masses are always behind. What was once seen as impossible became common knowledge in due time.
The truth is overlooked or underestimated because it’s not seen as something practical or useful to improve the self or ego. Yet, the value of it is infinite.
Self-development as most people know it today is Spiral Dynamics stage orange. I won’t get into it here but I encourage you to become familiar with it HERE
I realized that self-development done at a higher level can’t help but be spiritual.
Anything less than the truth corrupts and distorts reality and with the false lens that you live life is not life to the fullest.
The things I’ll say in this article may not make “logical” sense but that is the nature of truth.
It is beyond the comprehension of the human mind.
Also, this isn’t meant to be a complete guide but enough to get you started.
So, my goal for this article is I want you to consider there is this thing called truth that is worthwhile searching for and that it’s possible to know what it is, but you have to do the work. Nothing here should be taken as a belief, ideology, religion, or just merely believing me.
I am not asking you to believe me because it isn’t something you believe. It is something you can know and you can verify in your own experience.
Words reduce reality to something the human mind can grasp, which isn't very much. — Eckhart Tolle
First of all, human language, symbols, and concepts cannot grasp or know the truth, but yet I’ll try to attempt that in this article to point to the truth.
I’ll bet that you or even most people haven’t wondered and questioned what truth is nor has anyone ever told you.
Most people haven’t even begun to search because they aren’t aware that there is such a thing to search for or think they already know when they don’t.
Even if I were to give you the answer, it wouldn’t be enough to help you know it.
Because you have to become it, or more accurately be it.
You are already it but don’t realize it.
I know that may be difficult to get your head around but keep in mind that truth is not the following:
Truth is not:
A belief
An idea
A religion
Knowledge
Science
Subjective
Something that can be written in a book and taught to you.
So things such as concepts, symbols, language, interpretation, and thought are relative things held in your mind but are not absolute truth
Even facts you know as absolutely true are just relative truths. Such as 1+1=2 or that the sky is blue. There is nothing absolutely true about these things.
What is considered to be one thing is dependent on what you think of one thing to be.
Is a finger one thing or is it the hand?
In English, we have words such as “leg” and “foot” that are 2 things but in some languages like Japanese the word “Ashi” or 足 is for both leg and foot being one.
The sky is blue is also relative since the sky isn’t always blue. At night it’s not blue. You are also creating concepts of what blue even is to what it is not in relation to other “colors” as well as the ideas of things called “day” and “night”
So these are not just mere “Facts”
Even the self you think you are is created through layers and layers of concepts and knowledge. The actual state of reality includes knowledge which is one part of it.
Reality is not made of atoms or subatomic particles. It’s made of truth. The lower you try to go you’ll hit rock bottom because truth is rock bottom prior to any concept of it.
Truth is not something you know, it’s something you are. Being, life, reality.
The ego has taken truth and turned it into something it is not. Perception and experience are second-order things that are projected on truth to create yourself.
Truth is what is regardless of appearance.
If you were to say a unicorn doesn’t exist because you don’t see one right now, you are imagining a unicorn in your mind and projecting onto what is happening before you and saying that it could be the case but isn’t. This is like a movie projector showing a movie on a blank screen. All of the mental gymnastics in your mind exist. The mind is creating the idea of nonexistence, bringing the idea of nonexistence into existence as a concept.
Falsehood or something being impossible is impossible. The idea of the impossible is something you create in the mind. There is only existence.
It’s what is the case.
People take it for granted that they can see themselves in a mirror but remember what I said. The self is a combination of concepts put together.
If we were to take what we call a dumb animal such as a donkey, we know that it can’t recognize itself in a mirror but a human can. That a human can even do this is actually a very magical phenomenon and it’s not just something you are doing logically.
It’s something you do using intuition. A higher power or what some call infinite intelligence that permeates all of reality.
A human is more conscious than a donkey, but I’d like you to consider that there is something more. Something that is hidden in plain sight. Something so close that you easily overlook it.
Let’s use the following picture as an example.
First of all, notice that you probably wouldn’t have even bothered to look if I didn’t even prompt you to do so. That would be the case for most people and why they have never even bothered to search for truth without some sort of hint or something that made them start looking. So, yes there is something in the picture above that is in plain sight.
Also, this video I made may be helpful to you but be careful not to get lost in concepts.
Look beyond second-order things such as ideas. Truth is first order. You have to go directly.
When you become directly conscious of what truth is you will know. There will be no mistake.
As I said, this will not be something you believe. To believe something means you don’t know. Believing something means you think something is the case but you don’t really know.
Religious people believe in God and people do ask the question ”Do you believe in God?” but let me ask you this…
Do you believe that you have two hands?
When you wake up, you become the truth. Actually, to put it more accurately you are the truth.
This entire time, the whole entirely of your human life you have always been that but didn’t recognize it.
There is no one/ human self to become enlightened once it “happens”
Reality wakes up to itself. A dream it dreamt.
Ways to understand reality such as science and religion are part of the dream.
As well as the concept of all things even the human self which is wrapped into a countless number of concepts.
The dream of God
You are God.
Reality itself
I am the way and the truth and the life. — Jesus
We live in illusion and the appearance of things. There is a reality. We are that reality. When you understand this, you see that you are nothing, and being nothing, you are everything. That is all. — Buddha
I maintain that Truth is a pathless land, and you cannot approach it by any path whatsoever, by any religion, by any sect. — Jiddu Krishnamurti
…but yet you have a human life. Before awakening, chop wood and carry water. After awakening chop wood and carry water.
There is no path, but I think you’d be wise to walk it.
I know some may not be ready and it isn’t my right to intrude but more and more people are waking up.
In my personal life, I can choose how to tailor my message case by case as I talk to other people.
I hope those that have been searching will find this article.
If you have been searching and read this article, this article has found you.
