What Is Truth?
Sometimes you think you know all there is to know about the wiles of the world. But the wiles of the world are only wiles. Wiles are superficial. Do not make them your King.
When it comes to Truth, you have hardly scratched the surface. But there is no surface when it comes to Truth. There is nothing surface about Truth. By its very definition, Truth comes from a depth. Truth rises to the surface, but by then all you see is its tail. Pure Truth comes from the depths of the universe and from the depths of your heart. In terms of Consciousness, depths and heights are the same. The point is Truth is far-reaching, and Truth is intimate. And it is all within you.
You are never far from the Truth. But a millimeter of an inch is too far away.
Be in Truth. Anything else is sham or pretense. Away from Truth can only be away from Truth. Less than Truth exaggerates itself. It can only be hollow and not sustain you.
Too often you think Truth is grim. You think Truth means disillusion. In that it dispels falsehood, Truth does dis-illusion. But Truth is not illusion or it would not be Truth. Truth is the kernel of an ear of corn. Or, if you wish to go further, you can say it is the molecule and atom within the kernel. All is contained within it. You can go as far as infinity with Truth. Falsehood is only sheathing, and it can be torn away. It must be torn away in order for you to see.
Falsehood is drapery. It is never the window.
A painting of a landscape represents the landscape. It may represent the essence of the landscape. It may have all its beauty, and yet, you cannot walk on it. And if a painting were painted by one who is famous, someone may attempt to steal it, as if art in the world is to be possessed.
Truth cannot be stolen. You already possess it. It is all within you. Yet Truth is independent of the one who possesses it. Truth tells its own story. And you do not want to wander from it. No matter what profit you see in being on the outskirts of Truth, it profits you nothing. Truth, on the other hand, is a beautiful willing dance partner that embraces you. It holds you up, and lifts you high, all the while it keeps you on the ground.
Truth is more than giving the right change, you understand.
Truth is in more than the details. We can say there are no details when it comes to Truth, for Truth is very big. The Truth in your heart eclipses the whole universe.
Truth, like love, flows in a stream. Any diversion from the full stream is a diversion. Diversion from the Truth is not Truth. It is diversion.
It will be good for you to notice the Truth within you. It will be good to be authentic. It will be good to reach the Truth and to abandon falsehood.
Falsehood is a very weak ego-supporter. But no support is enough for a wayward ego. Ego is built on sand and can only bleed away.
Choose to be in your Truth. Let no word less than Truth pass your lips. Do nothing that is less than Truth. Your Truth is love. Do and speak from all the love that beats in your heart. Money is not Truth. Appearances are not Truth. Esteem is not Truth. Good Will is Truth.
Truth has no dimensions. It has no shape. Truth is beyond configuration. It is simply where you are when falsehood leaves.
