Truth is an opinion

Posted on by philipdodson

What is true?

In a world of fake news, social media, everyone having access to publish on the web, the compliant world population that questions nothing, the end of curiosity, the indifference, one conspiracy followed by another…In a world dominated by our egoic minds and disconnection with our spiritual self where is truth?

Truth in the exterior world is impossible to know. However, we all know the truth that is inside each of us, we all know deep down that our heart and souls will always be truthful, there lies the genuine you and me, the real person, and it is our minds that will distort it. We know the true spirit within us.

Truth is an opinion, so nothing is true in the exterior world. A true person exists inside every soul, we just need to be brave enough to be it and share it in the exterior world.

I’ve got a complaint

Posted on by philipdodson

The thing about complaining is that there is no resolution, only a thing to fight with. Fighting something, which is essentially resisting what is, has no benefit ever. what has already happened, has already happened and will not change ever, the past is gone. Even if it was only a second ago. Inner peace comes from accepting inside what has occurred, a thing that we cannot change.

What complaining allows is the mind to feed its ego and the pain body, which constantly needs a drama to survive. It allows a sense of importance, or a sense of being a victim or both to manifest, something to be indigent about, to centre things on ‘me’. ‘Me’ is what the ego loves.

Complaining is habitual and once your mind gets you hooked it spirals downwards until only a continual state of complaining will manifest.

When we accept without resistance, then it is a minor thing of a trivial nature that occurs, that has no impact on our state of wellbeing. When the mind complains, it is a major incident, that only leads to more major incidents and suffering.

Being in the moment ends the need to complain and removes the suffering it causes us and those that have to endure listening to it. It also leads to peace within.
