Liberty of Perception, Emancipation that Truth is!


Truth has its ways, unconfined to possibilities, as Mark Twain says: “Truth is stranger than fiction, but that is because Fiction is obliged to stick to possibilities; Truth isn’t.” And thus, saw, George Bernard Shaw, how Truth saws through the superficialities and gets ridiculed and ostracized, initially: “All great truths begin as blasphemies.”

Truth is unperturbed, as is totally detached—could be called indifferent too—from what comes Its way, and ensures that It presents Itself, come what way! The reception to It elevates as the perception elevates, as reception is determined by the level of perception. Or is it dependent on…or is to subjugate to…or… Well, well, this is what Truth tells: “All is relative, on this physical plane. All is contextual. Change the perceiver and changes even the meaning of Truth.”  Truth echoes Shakespeare: “As you like it.” Truth is infinitely flexible!

Little did I know, yet again, that I would be led to this scripting! Or is it, driven to? Or it is pulled to? Well, matters not! Grateful I am, as I find called to it…and it is graciousness of Truth that ensures that it is attended and grows the initially received. Unwavering is the reciprocity of Life Eternal—another aspect of Truth, Sole and Infinite, all at once! The principle of reciprocity falters not: The sown is reaped, the intention meets with manifestation, when devoted is the attention, even the attention ensured by Truth!

Truth’s ways myriad, I got led to: “The shepherd drives the wolf from the sheep for which the sheep thanks the shepherd as his liberator, while the wolf denounces him for the same act as the destroyer of liberty.” Abraham Lincoln it is, relaying the Truth, that all is relative, relayed by the daily, The Times of India, Kolkata, dated November 10, 2016. It is found in the space allocated:  “Sacredspace.” Indeed! Everything and everyone is in place perfect, as Albert Einstein says, E = mc2, the sown, reaped…each, unique, energy materialized, uniquely. But we fight for the supremacy of our Truth. Knowing not the magnanimity of Truth, Its flexibility, we claim superiority, and the liberty that we are accorded, how much we utilize, how much we extend…comes up to be questioned.

Lincoln’s presentation, as reaches and touches and resonates, recalled is his another, alike, the Wisdom, that Truth is: We can complain because rose bushes have thorns, or rejoice because thorn bushes have roses.”

And then, looking up the received in The Times of India, the trigger for this outpouring (Truth’s another way of affirming, It has Its way out always), find the full (even that is relative!) quote, and share, a part, pertinent to the unfurled and unfurling, in the here and now, this piece: “The shepherd drives the wolf from the sheep’s throat, for which the sheep thanks the shepherd as a liberator, while the wolf denounces him for the same act as the destroyer of liberty, especially as the sheep was a black one. Plainly the sheep and the wolf are not agreed upon a definition of the word liberty.” (http://www.goodreads.com/quotes/500941-the-world-has-never-had-a-good-definition-of-the)  

Yes, plain and simple is Truth, yet, simplicity, difficult to comprehend for a conditioned mind, complexities are born, borne and propagated—till are transcended by the un-conditioning of the mind. That, too, Truth of Life Eternal ensures, as so is life in form: the ephemeral is, to see through the ephemeral the Eternal.

Perception and reception are intricately entwined. So long, it is not realized, the liberty that perception incubates, doesn’t mature. But when is accepted and acknowledged, embraced and endeared, it is no longer endured, but realized as the empowerment it is… Deliverance it is! Perception, deemed as the gift of Life Eternal, deemed as liberty, is redeemed as emancipation that Truth is, striving no more, feeling insecure no more, fighting no more, acknowledging Self and all, honoring all as unique manifestation of The Infinite Oneness: The Truth of Existence, The Universal Energy of Creation, Love Unconditional!

And Love’s ways, are unbound, Its Deliverance, ensured, as is Independence in flow, as is The Light of Consummation, aglow!

Love & Light, Eternal & Eternally!
