Excerpt: “It is remarkable that humans can believe with the strength of perception and experience that which is completely false, the geocentric model of the universe being a prime example, which persisted in human experience for millennia, and presages the birth from sense to Soul, where the false sense of individuality is sublimated into the True.”
The common view is that material sense and the body represent Reality, but this view loses sight of the Source of all Being reducing it from infinity to limitation.
This (supposed) loss of an integrating Principle gives rise to the absurd proposition that the organization of appearances results from non-intelligence, or random chaos, thus, in one’s experience, annulling wisdom.
OK then, so what is Truth?
Holy scripture relates that God is a “still, small, voice” – could this be perhaps, that gross human, mortal thought tends to elevate self interest and overwhelm the word of wisdom? We think “yes.”
Be still and know that I am God does not mean that the finite is infinite, but that incessant reasoning from observed sense perception to remembered sense perception traps human thought in an endless loop which is escaped through inner silence.
Jesus (widely misunderstood and misapprehended when viewed solely through the lens of human perception as miraculous rather than exemplary) spoke of the Comforter and was titled “Christ.” What is Christ – the white light brighter than the sun that blinded Saul soon to become Paul on the road to Damascus? It is the facility whereby one reflects, expresses, and knows Deity, the divine, the impartation to man that is the light of the world, the light of understanding that illumines all with eternal (as opposed to mortal) Life, actuality, Reality.
It is remarkable that humans can believe with the strength of perception and experience that which is completely false, the geocentric model of the universe being a prime example, which persisted in human experience for millennia, and presages the birth from sense to Soul, where the false sense of individuality is sublimated into the True.
In mechanical engineering, what is it to “true” an assembly? It is to remove deviation, such that for example in a rotating assembly, vibration, or imbalance is minimized or removed entirely, that is to say, perfected.
“Be Ye therefore perfect.”

It has been cleverly pointed out that the Devil’s greatest trick was to persuade humanity that he doesn’t exist, yet in actual fact, its only reality so-called, is the temptation to accept and believe, to recognize as true that which is false.
The only reality of deviltry is the focus on a limited self to the exclusion of All, which cannot be excluded in Reality but only in imagination.
And now re-read the first sentence, at the beginning herein.
