subject: What Is The Truth [print this page] If you have surfed the internet for any respectable amount of time, you may have noticed there is an overwhelming amount of information out there on any given subject.
When exploring just about any single study you will find many wizards available eager to produce evidence supporting conclusions about their studies, and you will find just as many experts serving up logical arguments and evidence in contrast to those conclusions.
So when the focus of what you are trying to gain knowledge in is important to you, how are you supposed to really know what is horse dung and what's not?
Let's elaborate this just a little:
Who invented the light Bulb? Many of us will spit out the answer Thomas Edison. Some of you out there will say Joseph Swan, whom actually had a patent a year before Edison, and there may be fewer people yet who will show you evidence like the "Bagdad battery" and stone drawings, that points to the ancient Egyptians.
Closely examining some of our historical facts raises nothing more than more questions and leaves us little other options than to just sigh and spew out the most widely accepted "facts" as if they were the truth or at least possibilities.
What about things that matter to us:
Actually there are many things we have been taught from many "teachers" that simply isn't true. The "facts" may be widely accepted but just because an answer is popular doesn't make it the truth.
These details make a difference because it can be like a chain reaction of sorts, affecting us in ways we are not aware through our culture etc. actually being portions of the foundation of what we believe ourselves to be, if not only our self expectations or unconscious self limitations.
You can believe whatever you like it is more important that you believe in yourself than allow yourself to be confused with all the mumbo jumbo of suggestions offered throughout the past, present and future.
Now you might not have all the answers to everything, but you with some mindfulness and use of deep meditation you can actually get answers from yourself.
With the use of a little deep meditation you can direct questions to your subconscious mind asking advice and when you are ready useful and applicable answers will surface.
The answers that come to you will become better and better, and in reality you will be using more of your mind by utilizing your subconscious by asking the question and expecting solutions.
