“The Truth is within” is a common statement in spiritual circles and most religions … but ‘within’ WHAT or WHO?
Truth is another name for the ONE SELF … of which, there ‘is’ no other. There ‘is’ no within or without for the ONE SELF since IT has no boundaries. For most however, this so-called ‘within’ is some kind of ‘location’ since most are locked in the belief in separation where an infinity of ‘opposites’ seem to exist. There, the concepts of time and space appear normal as does the body-mind-identity most call ‘me’.
And for most, this within ‘location’ is somewhere ‘inside’ this entity called me. The heart is often referred to as this location, with some saying it is on the right side spiritually. However, the avatar-body worn by this mind called ‘me’ is an illusory holographic projection on the stage of dreams that the ONE SELF uses to navigate ITs infinite possibilities … temporary illusions – real for a season and then gone as with all that has a beginning and an ending.
There ‘is’ no ‘inside for Truth to reside within … there ‘is’ only Truth [the ONE SELF] You Really Are. This ‘within’ reference is simply a way of redirecting ‘attention’ away from the world of temporary things and toward what is REAL. It is the best the mind-entity can use to reroute the distracted [sleeping] ONE SELF - ‘back’ to IT SELF. “As above, so below’ refers to the simple manifestation of experiences, which always follows – an INTENTION guided by a steady ATTENTION combined with PASSION.
To give steady ATTENTION to the INTENTION of Truth with a genuine desire [PASSION] for ITs Realization … brings about the experience ‘of’ IT.
