Truth- Seeking and Practice -- Whys and Wherefores
Truth is the vital Foundation for a life of Good Results
Truth -- a Great and Powerful Healer
-- Can Be the Most Powerful Force on Earth, standing unmoved by what you or I may want.
Spirit is moved to and by truth, and the quality of truth- seeking is said to be loved by Higher Forces.
Yet most of us are much more attached to our ideas and opinions than to any person or thing; these can be as precious to us as our own sight.
Truth often calls us to change what is dear to us, our Ideas , our actions, our dreams and more.
To turn away from truth is deadly, no matter what we may tell ourselves to try to shut it out.

Healthy, Happy Practices
It is in the natural way of people, when harsh conditions or crises come upon them, to search their hearts for what they might have missed.
Wouldn't it be wise not to wait for some dire situation, but to make this sort of thing a routine practice?
Many who live by spiritual precepts do this very thing, taking regular, consistent stock of their own actions in events and humbly seeking out their part in it. They see to know whether they have acted well or poorly, and to face the truth of that no matter how humbling or hard it seems. This is a most commendable and healthy practice, that helps us stretch beyond our egos.

Truth-seekers' Inquiry Each one of us will one day stand alone before our own judgement and/ or the Spirit of Creation. The question then will not be: What path did you follow, formal or self- created? The question I will ask myself will be, what did I contribute to the good of life? |
Here are some top questions to ask oneself regarding one's own individual and spiritual path:
Is what I follow true? Is it a good inspiration for myself and others?
Am I in a path that brings UNITY?
Will my faith or pathway help to leave this world a better place, even, perhaps,
the best that it can be?

You may wish to ask yourself:
Did I search for truth with an open heart, listening for the promptings of the Soul? Did I follow up, or did I let self- will, resentment or discouragement deter me? Did I act on Spirit's promptings, or return to sleep and dreaming? Did I show love to my neighbor, feed the hungry, teach myself and others ? Did I do all that I could muster to leave this world a better place? |
