Post #171 "Beneath Surface Truth"

This writing is about a third proposition, an alternative to the established belief and power systems of Tradition and to the developing systems of science and technology built on Reason. This path of a third proposition, will lead deeper and deeper beneath the surface levels of daily life, for Truth is not found there, but at bedrock, where all the debris of millenniums has not yet accumulated or in the case of 'future determining past', where all debris has been removed, and can thereby, no longer be available to be hidden behind. Truth is hidden. Daily life and present values exist in what appears or seems to be truth, but this truth is only on the surface of existence. This truth is surface truth. Surface truth is not Truth in Reality. Surface truth is true on its own level of existence, but this truth fades out, becomes nebulous, is not reliable once the level beneath is discovered, for the lower the level, the closer one arrives at Reality Truth. Surface truth becomes less true when the level below it is exposed until it is obvious there is no truth at all to be found at surface level. Surface truth is only true to and within itself, but not to Reality. So there is the truth of non-reality to non-reality, as in the image of reality being creation and the Truth of Reality found outside or beyond creation, as in pre-creation. The surface truth at the layer of our world today rules and determines the life-styles chosen by 21st century Intellect. Daily life and present values exist in what appears or seems to be truth, but this truth is only on the surface of existence. This is surface truth. Surface truth denies and suppresses these first-cause Truths and does not attempt to answer the fundamental questions that lie buried in human hearts

This concept, this third proposition, is not in any way another attempt of the continuation of the many attempts to reconcile this controversy between religion and science that has been raging since the 16th century. Actually, the roots of the controversy extend many centuries before the Age of Enlightenment into ancient nomadic life styles, or what could be referred to as a situation of uncivilized life versus civilization. From these roots the movement extends back and beyond, moving from future to past to the very heart of the controversy,and indeed, to the very roots of who humanity has become. Its all about non-reality versus Reality.

Although many attempts have been made, the controversy between religion and science is not reconcilable, indeed, the uncompromising struggle includes the struggle for moral authority. There is basic disagreement even in defining good and evil The search for understanding and knowledge of these basic issues, as noted above, must go deeper...much deeper, into the past, into the present, and down into the future for the future can be found at bedrock, where it all began. This presentation will often refer to going back to the future as it will be reasoned that the future has created the past...the outcome has determined  the beginning. The method of presentation is an unfolding. Points will be presented and have been presented and, then, allowed to unfold in succeeding posts until all eventually comes together. Perspectives, opinions, and conclusions  can then be drawn of the total writing, if so desired and chosen. This is a search. This is a search for Reality. So far this search has determined the existence of non-reality and so, the search for Reality must include the existence of non-reality for one does not exist without the other. We must understand 'nothingness'. So this search mandates the willingness to dig down to bedrock, beneath the fear of confronting what may be exposed. All preconceived notions, and ideas must be set aside to be able to grasp this concept. Many mountains of untruths must be revealed and removed as truth does not lie at the surface of our daily lives in the present day world where most living takes place.
