They scramble up mountains and tumble through valleys, doing whatever it takes to grasp it—weathering the dark nights and celebrating the bright mornings along the way.
Some will eventually find it, though never the whole thing, just a fragment. But honestly? Even a tiny sliver can be worth a fortune. Still...

Don't you get the feeling that Truth, with a capital T, isn't looking to be hunted down by everyone? It’s not like it wants to reveal its entire self to the masses, but rather chooses to show us one little piece at a time.

All those seekers, thinkers, and independent souls who push themselves to the limit to find even a shred of what we call the Great Truth—aren't they actually chosen by the Truth itself as it slowly reveals its face to them? 😲😉

istina was never hidden, and it isn't now. The illusion that it's being kept from us comes from our own current state of consciousness.

You have to expand your awareness first to recognize istina. Awareness isn't an intellectual thing. It's purely spiritual.

Jack,
Since you seem quite preoccupied with this concept of "THE ONE," I find myself wondering what exactly you mean by it.
1. Is this "ONE" something transcendent?
2. Does your version of "THE ONE" draw from Neoplatonism—specifically the idea of a singular deity—thereby aligning with the Christian interpretation of "THE ONE" as a supreme being, which, let's face it, is how the masses usually digest the concept of God?
3. Furthermore, what is the path to achieving "THE ONE"? Is it through reason, direct experience, or perhaps something entirely beyond human experience?

P.S. I would be ever so grateful if you could keep your posts a bit more concise; if there is one thing I truly cannot stomach on this forum, it is those interminable walls of text that I inevitably end up skipping...
