Is It True Or Not?

Just reading something and identifying with it won’t do. We have to reflect and contemplate with an unbiased eye. That, in fact, is the answer we seek.

It’s not wrong to question a statement. This is the reason why the Buddha said, “Do not take my word for it; test it for yourself.”

In the world, we are encouraged, or ordered – subliminally – to identify with all sorts of ideas which carry us away. In my mind, I still hear tunes, hymns and Christmas carols from my childhood. 🙂

Yesterday’s blog said that the universe is not conscious. Is that true or not? There isn’t a right answer. If we say yes, we view the world one way, and if we say no, we see the world another way.

There’s no right answer because we are all evolving individually, and we have to start somewhere. Most aren’t bothered one way or another, and their evolution will be slower, that’s all. When we come to any conclusion, it is just part of the journey.

Not this, not this.
Thou art that.
To that, we say, not this, not this.

Look, see, drop.
