Truth Versus Belief

"Truth will always be truth, regardless of lack of understanding, disbelief, or ignorance."  W. CLEMENT STONE

There are a massive number of people who do not know the difference between truth and belief. They have been systematically programmed and find it difficult, if not impossible to separate the two. The lines have been blurred and information misinterpreted. Beliefs have twisted the symbolism of ancient wisdom to the literal interpretation of things, people, and places. Religious beliefs focus more on the allegories than the messages they are meant to convey. As a result, distorted and false explanations of human existence are promoted and everybody thinks their version is correct leading to conflict and indifference.

The truth, as opposed to belief, does not require the support of human consciousness in order to manifest. The truth is pure consciousness and the reality that emerges from it. Belief systems, such as religion, are fundamentally man-made attempts to explain reality. They are created to explain phenomenon when the truth is not accessible or hidden (occult). Truth lies within objectivity...there is no distortion by human perception. It infinitely is what it is regardless of any support of the human thought process or viewpoint...it stands on its own. On the other hand, beliefs cannot exist without human interest and subjectivity being fed by mental energy. Yes, it may be true that if one believes something fervently enough (faith), it can manifest (become truth). However, it still must operate within the parameters of the truth and it's universal laws. The truth ultimately provides the conditions necessary for the belief to manifest.

Truth is universal. Beliefs emerge from human culture. Truth has a spiritual or supernatural source, whereas, belief has a physical or natural source. Beliefs may have elements of truth, but the source is man-made. Both truth and belief can be rejected.

Truth is based on facts supported by mathematics and empirical or scientific data, such as quantum physics. Belief is solely based on faith.

The truth empowers and promotes growth. Belief weakens and promotes stagnation.
Truth promotes independence. Belief promotes dependence.

Truth provides freedom. Belief imprisons.

Truth unites. Belief separates.

Truth never changes and is eternal. Belief is changeable based on temporary circumstances.

Terms that describe individuals who have discarded their beliefs and embraced truth include terms such as, ascended, awakened, enlightened, and illuminated.

There are 14 universal laws that govern truth and define how our world operates. Once we understand and apply them, the quality of our lives will improve.

Embracing truth is not an easy process, particularly when the mind has been reprogrammed to discard various belief systems. The discarding of belief systems or becoming awakened is an upgrade which requires growth. The initial stages of awakening can be unpleasant due to the growth process and the growing pains that accompany it. However, the destination is indeed worth the journey!
