truth contd.

whatever ideas that you have agreed to are your truth.
They will remain your truth until new ideas and thoughts enter into your mind,
and as you find agreement with them they slowly, imperceptibly become truth.
It does not change or alter the truth, for the truth is unchangeable.
Only our understanding changes.
This is your truth and not everyone will agree with you.
Your truth may not find agreement with even your most loved ones.
They have their own truth. and their agreement or disagreement may or may not alter
your truth, but their disagreement may never diminish it.
Their agreement doesn't make it less or more real or less or more true,
anymore than your agreement with them validates their truth.
This does not mean there is not an ultimate truth, an ultimate reality and our
truth should not be confused with this ultimate truth that is beyond our understanding,
even beyond our comprehension.
We only drink from its well.
We are not the well.
As you continue to drink let it bring new awareness and be open to it.
Continue to grow in the truth. Do not be diminished by your perceptions of truth.

truth

truth is to be sought, not known
one can drink from its well,
but never drain its contents.
one who thinks they posses the truth
is only looking at the ladle, and not the lake.

Grandfather, I am sending a voice!       To the Heavens of the universe, I am sending a voice;       That my people may live!

for he may remain silent with his whole attention directed to the Great Spirit or to one of His Powers. He must always be careful lest distracting thoughts come to him, yet he must be alert to recognize any messenger which the Great Spirit may send to him, for these people often come in the form of an animal, even one as small and as seemingly insignificant as a little ant.

we regard all created beings as sacred and important, for everything has a wochangi or influence which can be given to us, through which we may gain a little more understanding if we are attentive.

and although we may think that we are going away from Him, sooner or later we and all things must return to Him.

Although this star did not really speak to me, yet it taught me very much.

as I was walking down the road on a dark, moonless light I noticed a glimmering light. As I walked in the fields and off the road the light seemed brighter and more clear, and the farther I walked, the more I noticed the light. It was then, that I realized it had always been that way.
