My truth is not your truth. Your truth is not my truth. Neither of our truths more than approximates the deep truth that underlies the surfaces, in the depths of the Creation. We are set free by that truth but not by proclaiming any ownership of it. Systems of thought, ideologies, religions, philosophies, mythologies, all proclaim themselves as vessels of truth. Each is merely a sketch... a draft... a hypothesis of the deep abiding principle that underpins all that is. When I say "I live in the mystery"
I affirm the point of view that my truth... my vision is very slight. The deeper truth is beyond my grasp. It takes humility to relinquish my version of the truth. I live in the mystery of the truth that enfolds all truth.
