Ultimate Truth & Simplicity

[Guest guest]

To me the Ultimate Truth is simple and straight forward. If you allow me to

use the word 'God' for the Ultimate Truth. God is all ... says it all!

Everything is God. You can find God in the humble ant as well as the

holiest of the holys. And nobody and nothing is higher or lower.

 

Anything added is an unnecessary complication and can be attributed to the

mind and ego. In other words superstition! All organized religions and

their ludicrous ways are just superstition, business and politics.

 

All that religious and spiritual jargon [or should I say 'mumbo-jumbo'?]

that people like to show off with is also a product of the ego/mind. What

cannot be described in plain English [or any other language] is not worth

knowing. It is used simply to complicate things for a hidden agenda or to

cover up lack of understanding.

 

And no words at all are even better!

Hi Jan,

 

A few days ago we watched while somebody

in this group experienced for the first time

the knowledge that God is everything.

 

I wonder if some of the words that were

uttered here helped make his experience happen.

 

Regards,

 

Rob

The real aim of all religions is to lead up to the awakening

to the Truth of the Self. But the Truth of the Self is too simple

for the generality of men ; even though there is no one who is

not aware of the Self , men do not care to be told of It ; they think

the Self to be of little worth; they want to hear of far-off things -

heaven, hell , reincarnation and so on ; they love mystery , and not

the plain truth ; and the religions humour them , so that ultimately

they may come back to the Self. But why not seek and find and

abide in the Self at once , without further wandering ?
