WCD#12:

The Truth Is Out There

While it may seem as though I am riffing off a famous phrase from a popular 90’s TV show, you are both right and wrong.

The title was inspired and means what it says, while also carrying a joke in reference to that well-known saying, “The truth is out there.”

This post is not about extraterrestrials and UFOs, however.

It is quite literal. The truth is out there. It must be for it to be true.

I am not talking about my truth, your truth, his truth, her truth, or the truth in between.

Someone told me once that in disputes between people there is “his truth, her truth, and the real truth which neither can fully know or express.”

While this may be so in temporal, earthly experiences… this is not true truth.

For true truth can only be exactly as it is.

Always and Completely

The truth is eternal and complete. It cannot die. If it is of this physical world, it can die, and therefore is not the truth.

This is emphasized and made very clear in “A Course In Miracles.”

For how can the truth of God, of creation, of everything be variable? Then it would not really be true. It would only be partially true and therefore not the absolute truth.

What is the absolute truth? Well, I suggest reading “A Course In Miracles” and learning as you can. I am still learning and do not know.

I suppose if I knew the truth, it would be very apparent. Because it would be complete.

The course defines the truth as complete knowing in the heavenly creation of God.

Think of it this way: there is a light switch in your room. The light is either on, or off, and cannot function in partiality.

There is either light or dark.

The same could be said of truth. It is either “on” or “off.”

So there is either complete truth or lack of it. It can be no other way, or it wouldn’t be the truth.

The truth is out there, always and completely.

Thank you for reading.

I hope this post offered some insight and opened your eyes a bit to at least the idea of truth. Even if we don’t fully know what that is from our perspective currently.

Do you have any feedback and what the truth might mean to you? Or would this post help someone you know? Please share.

Many blessings to you all,

Matthew
