The Truth

"The idea of god as a conscious decision-maker puzzles me... It just seems so unnatural or artificial/man-made. Just "our" freedom of choice seems unnatural. Now to say there is an omniscient and omnipotent consciousness capable of choice and a plethora of other human-like qualities seems just as, if not more unnatural.

We know that we as individuals are imperfect and fake. We all have our "own" ideas of whats correct; perhaps we are all incorrect. What makes one view or decision more correct than another? It all depends on ones sense of perception.

To me decisions seem so unnatural. With our ability to act and decide, it seems we complicate the natural simplicity of nature.. The most natural way is a way of no action or no mind. Ones actions and mind only complicate and for this reason receive the title, "mother of the 10,000 things". There is no such thing as perfect actions. All actions have good and bad consequences whatever they may be. In addition, so are decisions imperfect. Our decisions, values and beliefs, seem to stray from the natural truth... The "truth" is unexplainable... and when we try to title what the "truth" is we forget to title what its not. This is because we view an illusion of the "truth" through a tiny viewpoint. This is "our" perception. An illusion in which "our" false-ego manifests.

This is why it is said so many times that we will never understand the truth until we can toss our false-ego aside. And once we do this, we cease to exist. This is why it is impossible for "us", as ego-bearing individuals, to comprehend the truth. We are too guilty of complicating simplicity, and the "truth" is the most simple of all. This is why, to the individual, the farthest thing from comprehension is the "truth"; our minds are too complex to comprehend the simplicity of the natural way.

To my knowledge, The truth is comprehensible as an ego-less experience. This is why we cannot fathom it and why we cannot explain it. Our false-consciousness is limited to singular perception. This singular perception is never truly "understood". What we call "understanding", is due to how one's experience compares relative to their others. Our language - and in fact science as whole for that matter - is only a relative understanding as well. Language, and science are both tools of discriminating, dividing, comparing, measuring, categorizing, etc. Due to this, a world of intellectual distinctions is created; of opposites which can only exist in relation to each other.

Because both our false-consciousness, our language or form of communication and the way we understand our world is only strictly known relative to our man-made divisions and distinctions, we will never know/comprehend/understand the exact truth. Because of this, we must go beyond our false-consciousness and let go of our false-ego which divides us from the whole. We must go beyond language and our primitive form of communication and into a realm of definite experiences. We must go beyond science and into a realm of understanding as a whole; not an array/gradient of complex relative nonsense.

Once we realize this, and escape the limits of what we believe is our reality, will we comprehend the truth."
