Our cognitive minds are very powerful and seek to dominate our awareness. When we think “me”, since we are thinking, we naturally assume that “I” am the thinker. But, in fact, the thinking mechanism is only one aspect of our being.
As I see it, truth is not so much a thing to be recognized and remembered, as it is a way of seeing and being.
Truth knows no agenda, and an honest seeker of truth looks, not to prove that anything is so, but to see clearly, and only, what is. The quest is to be receptive and open enough, from breath to breath, to experience the truth, as it is manifesting, in the ever-evolving moment. And to blend sight and insight with understanding to maintain a continually evolving world view.
This requires a stilling of deliberation and idol ramblings, and an acceptance of the validity of the logistically uncertain and un-provable nature of “knowing”. A trusting of instincts, intuition and messages from outside of the rational. An opening to Self. Allowing for mystery in life, and a willingness to being proved wrong. A union of inspiration, wisdom and knowledge. And a sincere desire to realize the unadulterated truth.
It may sound heavy, but it's a much weightier and more arduous task to lug around and defend an unwieldy and inaccurate fantasy of the world and one's self.
