Deception 11-13-07


This present realm that we occupy is made up wholly of a fractionalized and incomplete display of reality. At no time does a person consciously or unconsciously perceive every possible combination of dynamics that are interacting even within one foot of them, let alone on a global scale. Although this reality is not hard to comprehend, the human consciousness is not comfortable at all with this fact. Luckily, the human awareness, in its most awe-inspiring power, is able to push this fact far from any person’s attention, allowing them to gain a sense of “understanding” or “grasping” of any situation, idea, object…. The only problem is that while this does bring comfort to the present consciousness, it is a false sense of comfort, as it inevitably means that we are in a constant state of being deceived. Everything that we see and hold to be true can, by definition, be nothing more that a fraction of truth. Or, in other words, everything that is perceived as true is merely a thread in the fabric of a much larger truth.
