The Only Truth Needed

The word "truth" has developed a bit of an ambiguity over the years; soiled and layered with a myriad of meanings and concepts, even within the same genre of explanation. Through out the millennia of human existence, many have come, attempting to expound the Truth of Life itself, providing meaning and purpose to this profoundly paradoxical mass hallucination that is life. From this one harbinger of Truth, come many more people who have taken these teachings and turned them into a plethora of cults and religions, becoming diluted and misconstrued by those who wished to pass them on with out experiencing it first hand and thus lacking the depth of understanding necessary.

Truth cannot be spoken, witnessed nor contemplated; only experienced.

To hear about is to forget
To watch or witness is to have a vague memory
But to do or experience is the only means to understand

All spirituality, religions and philosophy's aim to explain "this" (waves hand through air); this reality, this life, this silly existence of ours. But the simplicity of the Truth is the not-so-obvious fact that YOU are the only Truth you need, for you are existence incarnate; you are life itself! If you wish to seek understanding of Life, step back and observe yourself a bit.

If you don’t have the gusto to go and inhabit yourself in solitude from time to time, you have no idea as to the magnificence of the incarnated phenomenal existence known as Human Being within the Universe that you are.

Our Idea of Existence is just one interpretation of consciousness or Intelligent light. That should have been obvious once we figured out how the eye works. Everything “out there” is light entering the mind through the eye, and then the light is interpreted or translated into forms of differing phenomena and than projected onto the orbicular screen of perception. With better understanding, comes better interpretation. Each observer is an individual photon, swimming within an infinite array of light. The Whole, separated into Infinite Individualism, each with an essence of the One, shared, mind. (The Collective Consciousness or Special Consciousness)

Existence is just an ocean of light until an awareness or self-conscious photon comes around and interprets it to have form, with concepts of how and what that form should be. Than you so happen upon other self-conscious photons that happen to be aware of this phenomenal play of light as well:

(But, are they real? Or are they just figments of your imagination? Forms made from the Light to help push your growth forward? You don't decide the people you come across on your journey, they are just, happenings. You happen upon them.)

Well, most times they aren’t quiet aware of how phenomenal it is or that it’s a construct of “their” mind (thus the idea of "The Fall", the forgetting of our minds power over our life, bestowing us with the title "the species with amnesia"). Most restrict their interpretations down to be aligned to certain concepts, beliefs and biased education; usually the ones most commonly held by others, not to stray from the majority and come to their own understanding based on their own experience of existence. The majority offer reassurance, “it’s what everyone else thinks”, never too stray off and find their own Truth. (Hence why the "maybe" of them being projections. Them showing you what you have to grow out of at times?)

Life is a majestic dream of the collective. A drama in which the characters are Infinity individualized, also known as Omnipresence. The stage set being that of a shared, collective understanding as too what form consciousness takes.

Look out at the world from the depth of pure Being; awareness observing the play of light and sound on the stage of mind. The mind interprets, orchestrates and constructs this light based on past knowledge gained and experiences had.

You can change your interpretation of reality through changing how you perceive things; it is your perceptions that are interpreted. To figure out how one alters one’s perceptions, one observes how they perceive, they perceive through the senses. The senses are the doors, portals to reality; windows in which we get to peek at that which is, momentary existence. God or consciousness manifest in that momentary glance. Then comes the perception of the moment, which leads to interpretations of the moment based off of past accumulated knowledge and experience, which dilutes the initial virgin experience of the moment of existence into one of concepts, ideas, “facts”, knowledge, internal conversation about the moment already past or a myriad of other things. The original witnessing of consciousness manifesting is obscured, lost in a torrent of thought.

What’s the point in having to verbalize inside your head what you feel, hear or think for that matter? If that’s already “you” experiencing these things, why should “you” have to tell “yourself” about it? Seems redundant.

If you seek to come to a better understanding of what is, this life, existence, reality; what better way to investigate existence than to examine that in which you are, existence incarnate! You, being an aspect of existence (you exist, do you not?) you are the best subject for attentive watching of how life works. Your thoughts, emotions, reactions, judgments and habits can be watched, when remembered, and from coming to awareness, they can become fine-tuned or even removed. To rise above the primal, instinctual, habitual reactions to existence and, instead, you use situations to strengthen your awareness and act in the way the moment sees fit.

Seek that which dwells within, the watcher of the life-movie screen; the One that observes the sensations of the senses and listens to the redundant talking commentary of the mind. When you can catch this, you than have your life back into your own hands.

Remember the feeling of Being! That aliveness, that Animating Energy manifesting your physicality out into existence... That is the real you.

Row, row, row your boat, gently down the stream!
Merrily, merrily, merrily, life is but a dream.
