As we learn Truth, we won't need others to interpret it for us....

[Guest guest]

Dear All,

 

Here is an excerpt from a previous post of Jagbir's, where he also quotes Walter

Mercado in his book " Beyond The Horizone: Visions of the New Millennium " .

 

One of the interesting things that Mr. Mercado states is that: -

 

" As we reach deeper into the New Age, we will reach deeper inside ourselves for

the truth. And as we learn the truth, we will no longer need or want others to

interpret it for us.

 

Isn't this so true!

" According to Walter Mercado in his book Beyond The Horizon:Visions of the New

Millennium " there will be many who will resist the truth of the new era. They

may try at first by playing upon the sense of self-doubt that lies within each

of us. Self-doubt exists only because we have allowed others to define our

reality for so long that we no longer know what is real anymore. When we look

inside and catch the first sight of what is real and it does not concur with

what those around us have said and are saying at the moment, we discard it. We

doubt ourselves because we have allowed others to tell us what truth is. But as

we reach deeper into the New Age, we will reach deeper inside ourselves for the

truth. And as we learn the truth, we will no longer need or want others to

interpret it for us. This will cause friction with those who defend the

institutions they feel comfortable with, the institutions they cling to like a

security blanket in a world they really aren't comfortable with at all. Those

who cannot, or do not dare, to look inside themselves for the truth will be the

ones who will resist the rest of us the most. They will be the ones who

challenge the rest of us the most. They will be the ones who try to make the

rest of us think that we are wrong because they want desperately to believe that

they are right, and they know that once their faith is shaken, they have nothing

left to cling to. But be wary of anyone who demands that you have blind faith in

what they are saying. If they will not allow scrutiny, it is possibly because

their beliefs cannot stand up to scrutiny. And when those who hide within the

institutions because they do not dare to look inside themselves feel that they

are losing their grip on the rest of us, they will fight. "
