relative truth and absolute truth are two sides of the same coin*
any thinking being is amphibian,
existing at any moment in one or both of two worlds:
the world of what is and the world of what is thought to be
the truth of anything thought to be is relative:
existing at any moment in one or both of two worlds:
the world of what is and the world of what is thought to be
the truth of anything thought to be is relative:
it depends on what else is thought to be
as for what is,
nothing doesn’t change
nothing is perfect
nothing depends on nothing
☛ what is depends on what is
the truth of what is depends on nothing else;
it is absolute, beyond words, beyond the mind,
it is absolute, beyond words, beyond the mind,
open here and now – even so – to any and all being
as nothing other than the direct experience of being
as nothing other than the direct experience of being
nothing thought or said is the absolute truth
the thought of being – I am – is the first thought,
the origin of relative truth, of the world of what is thought to be:
the origin of separation into me and not-me, this and not-this, …
may all be well, letting that thought of being invite the question: Who am I?*
