The Path to Truth


What is The Path to Truth?


What is the path to Truth?

So many people sacrifice the pinnacle of their youths

in order to find this path.

Even now there seem to be an infinite number of ways.

However, the path to Truth must be one

that is accessible by anyone.

It must be scientific and systematic.

And in due course it must lead to enlightenment

in proportion to how much one has cleansed one’s mind.


Enlightenment comes when

one’s tightly bound mind is wholly headed towards Truth.

Enlightenment is realization in proportion to

how much one has become Truth.

Knowing as much as one’s mind has been awakened

is enlightenment.

When one is awakened from one’s individual mind

and is headed toward the Whole,

he will know as much as God’s Mind,

which is the awakened consciousness;

such is enlightenment.

Enlightenment is the realization one gains depending on

how much Truth one has in his mind.


Until now, we have only been able to hear about Truth.

In order to take the path towards Truth,

we must know what Truth actually is.

We have been taught

that Truth is eternal and never-changing.

So then let us try to find

this eternal and never-changing Truth,

or in other words, the infinite Universe.

In the Universe

before the sky, the stars, the moon, the sun, and the earth existed,

there was nothing.

In this Universe, there are

the stars, the moon, the sun, and the earth in the sky.

So then where is Truth?

Even at this very moment,

some stars are born in the sky while others fade.

There is no Truth in anything that is visible to the eye,

for they are all things that will eventually disappear.

All creations come from

the emptiness of the Universe

that is before and beyond the emptiness,

and to it is where everything will return.

Stars may come and go eternally in this emptiness,

but this emptiness will always remain as it is.

Thus this emptiness is the everlasting and living Truth.

And in order to never die and live in the eternal world

one must become this emptiness itself;

otherwise, nothing is eternal.


A person who has been born again as

the emptiness of the Universe

is one whose Soul and Spirit have become God,

and it is this Soul and Spirit that will live eternally

in true Paradise.

Due to his attachment-filled mind,

man only has delusions in his mind

and so, there is no Truth in man.

Cleansing one’s mind is the same thing as

repenting for one’s sin.


The Path to Truth

Some say that the path to ending their existence and being reborn as Truth is a difficult one to endure.

However, it is not a path that winds on forever.

Indeed, it is difficult for a person to try and cleanse his life - a life he has lived only for himself. But the Truth of all truths is that man is born as Truth in the absence of his self.
