As artificial intelligence, media manipulation, algorithms, and calcification of belief bubbles become more of a problem, how can we know what is true anymore?
Many are looking for answers. The truth must be “out there” somewhere, and perhaps it is, but there are so many fakes in every category of knowing, that we can’t be sure of anything we see and hear through any kind of medium. Politics, secrecy, ulterior motives, greed, territoriality, and many other things make “information” we receive less and less reliable. We all have learned how to mine information at about the same rate that both good and bad actors have learned how to manufacture it. We’re taking in more data, but do we truly know more?
Understanding our deeper natures, our purpose in the world, and the infinitely rich world around us, both of the seen and the unseen, will only be an authentic knowing if we experience it ourselves. We must experience our consciousness, our lives, and the web in which we live in the first person. The world within is as infinite as the world outside of us. Don’t wait to know yourself. People and machines by the millions will tell you things. I do not believe we were meant to live 100% “on faith” without personal experience and revelation. Do you?
