Just A Thought ~ TRUTH?

"Truth is living, not static, and the mind that would discover truth must also be living, not burdened with knowledge or experience."

~ J. Krishnamurti, Sage, 1895 - 1986 ~

We think of Truth as something existing by itself ~ an entity, like a god ~ out there. But there is actually no such thing; rather, there is the truth about things ~ that is, things are as they are, instead of as we perceive them to be. To understand things as they are, however, requires insight, again and again, because insight doesn't stay with us, but comes and goes.

Sometimes, we may understand very clearly, but our clear-seeing passes, and the darkness closes in again. And yet we have seen, and never forget it.
