The Only Source of Truth?

.. i've read this entire thread and all you guys talk about is the TRUTH.. what is that so called Truth anyway ?? Truth that God exist ?? Truth about our existance ??


@bluedes, let me quote what you said

there is no truth except Truth itself. us humans who have our little souls are nothing.. just a reflection of the Ultimate.. I wonder why we still live.. for what purpose but to go back to God.. human life is truly suffering..

when you realize that you are merely living a repetition of this so called "Life", it ceases to become Real.. what is Real then?

.. if you see it that way, that human life is suffering and had a realization that life is redundant and you're so eager to know where should we go, how about finding it for yourself... no offense, but go ahead and and commit suicide and die. Coz only in death can we answer all the questions about God or wether we have a soul or not, you know, those type of questions.

i wish i could.. i honestly tried that..

but as much as it is pointless to live on, its also pointless to just commit suicide and die..

and so, i'm on a totally different journey in life.. (well, not really totally different, just found my own personal meaning for life, not some religious or whatsoever other meaning other people claim to have)

on a general case though, life's purpose is to continue living.. and since i am what most of us classify as biologically alive, thus, i continue to go on living.. some people have a problem with that, but can't really please everyone now, can i..


*and no offense taken whatsoever..

pero mutuo ka nga ang Bible is one of the sources of truth?

Yes.the bible is one source of spiritual truth!

John 14:6
6Jesus answered,"I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. "

Too ko ni Jesus. =).

He's the way, the truth, and the life. Getting to know The one who is The Way, The Truth , and the Life, is through God's word (Bible) .

I think this refers to the Christ Consciousness of Jesus

The Path to Truth


The path to divine Truth is not what people expect it to be.
We may look at the fundamentalist believers of various religions who follow the literal meaning of their sacred texts, and laugh at their narrow-mindedness. We may imagine that we are more open-minded than most people. We may feel that we have a source of knowledge that is far beyond what other people have.

Yet as long as we look to books, gurus, and teachers, we have only gone, perhaps, one more step closer to Truth, but have not actually gone all the way.

We all know people who take the "word of God" literally. Sometimes we have been one of those people ourselves, and have come to realize that the sacred word of God is more than a prop for a narrow sect or religion. We have seen, perhaps, that there are essential truths within all the religions. We may have concluded that there is only one Source behind them all, and thus looked to each religion as being only one of many outer appearances or forms.

Nevertheless in all of this the pure, unadulterated Truth itself has remained elusive. The "truth that sets us free" of this world of illusion is something that many people claim to have but very few people actually demonstrate. We may suspect that the liberating Truth remains something that is a mystery and a secret which, perhaps, we feel that we may one day uncover. We may imagine that when we become worthy and wise, a teacher will arrive to inform us of the greatest secrets of the world — secrets of initiation and the hidden teachings of the mystery schools.

But is this so? Is not divine Truth ever-present? It may be that we are unaware of Truth not because we are inadequate, unworthy, or because our karma does not permit it, but because we are not in a mental place in which such things may be told to us. We are cut off not because of any fault or inadequacy, but because we have — unknown to ourselves — chosen to cut ourselves off. How is this possible?

the greatest truth is that there is none.

on a programmers POV:

the Truth is just a bunch of "Nested IF's" statement..hehe
