I have personally been very cautious to even say when I identify with some of the referenced texts
I was draw here by the energy and its flow. I feel as if I am drawn to seek a unfolding truth and much of what I see and read here calls to me
As much of it as I feel I "get", the part of the truth that I have been able to grasp is that not only was i born believing the world revolved around me (american ego?) but i believed so did knowledge and reality.
Its only now, so far along the path of life already, that I realized intellectually and spiritually it is if as I was a turtle and have finally stuck my head out of my shell
the world that I once believe I knew and understood as being whole, was only MY world, and in it I was held to the limits of my own being.
As I feel I understand others, and other perspectives I started to see the world in a different dimension, as if my spiritual understanding went from 2-D to 3-D.
There were great efforts of love, payments in suffering and days months and years that have passed as this happened, as I said it seems to me as if truth unfolds itself as I apply the right energies and the right state of mind, but if I believed I was complete before I knew what a world outside myself was, how can I be sure I UNDERSTAND the truth that has been unfolded opposed to the state of learning I am undergoing as it continues to unfold.
the less I know the more that is revealed, the more I give the more that is given, and when I try to understand the state I am in and knowingly manipulate the energies I take away form the practice of applying those energies
I feel that sharing in a way that says i read this and it inspired me in this manner would allow for our personal identification of the process and where we see that sentiment reflected
I think that if my understanding is correct, truth is one entity that extends past our personal experiences and lifetimes. The ultimate truth cannot not be rightly defined by any one man and that any one man that is so enlightened would not want to misrepresent the truth by saying it could be
i believe that if we misrepresent the truth, even with the best intentions, we misguide ourselves, others and our collective energies involved.
please correct me if there is any slight upon the truth as it interpret it and try to reflect it in the statements above.
so much of this thread enriches me thank you for sharing one and all
