You keep speaking about truth, but to what truth are you referring? This one?

I'll give you another tip. Any time you have to describe spreading your philosophy as helping "others to wake up" all you do is identify yourself as the egocentric type of person who believes that someone he is gifted or privileged or special in some way to have this set of information, and that anyone who lacks it is somehow empty or incomplete. It's pure vanity and pride. Believe what you want, but know that billions of other people have pondered the same question that you're doing right now (whatever that question might be) and come up with radically different and equally satisfactory answers, and your answer is no closer to "the truth" than theirs.


The truth of life... that is same for anyone, no matter what you think.
I will not debate about this, there is nothing to debate about.
2+2=4 there is only one good answer and billions of wrong.

Even though people are always thinking about the past and the future, they do not see it truly. The mind is preventing people from seeing the present, and it is also preventing people from seeing the true past and future.

No one really looks past a hundred years. What happens then?

Many people do not think past the next fifty or sixty years or past death, because they think it is a long way off or that there is no hope; dead means dead, or they believe in a myth. They could not be more wrong.

When you know you are going to die and life is short, shouldn’t you prepare for it? You need a long-term plan that goes past this life and death.


Someone once said that “people live in quiet desperation.” The truth is, they live in ignorance. People are so busy playing mind games that they never see or even imagine that there is really another way, a way to a place that is better than any dream you ever had.

Ignorance is not bliss. It is the cause of all misery.

We have to know the truth in order to walk the path. The truth is the path. You have to be able to see the path, all of it, before you can go where you really want to go. Almost everyone is lost. Most people just do not know it, which makes them even more lost.

The definition of being lost is not knowing where you are and not knowing where you are going. That makes just about everyone lost. Only the truth and the life can show you the way, because it is the way.

The saddest thing is someone dying without ever living.

Lie and die:
People live their lives living a lie, and they then die in a lie.

It is interesting that “lie” and “die” are so close to the same thing.

2 + 2 doesn't always equal 4. 2 + 2 = 1 in base 3.

So if there's nothing to debate about, then why did you make a thread?

Yeah but we don't use base 3, 2 apples +2 apples = 4 apples for everyone I know.
I made a trade to share.
Anyone is welcome to post anything about the universal truth (that is obviously the same for everyone).

2+2 in base 3 would be 10, not 1.

Oof, you're half right. I was wrong, but so were you. We were both careless here :P

It's 11.

Hello brother,

My name is Etienne and my life changed few days ago, when I found a website called Truthcontent.
Search "Truth Contest" in Google and click on the 1st result, then open The Present and read what it says.

I'm posting this here because it talks about the true nature of life, explained by scientific evidence.
The autor quotes some of the greatest scientists and wise people.

Now I finished to read it, I found a new meaning for my life, a purpose... a path to the ultimate truth of life.
That's why I encourrage you to read it with all my heart, so you can seek the truth with me brother.

Kindly,
Eti


Sounds crazy to me.

Well the original post is not very good, the website is actually called The Truth Contest, and I expressed myself in a bad way at this time :)
What matters is the message, and the message of The Present, is the opposite of crazyness or cults... Check it for yourself.

A bit sounded like a jehova's witness but nice for you.
I guess I already found mine.
