“The Mystery of Truth”
We seek to unfold the mystery of Truth. Why is Truth a mystery? Why is it hidden from us? What will reveal it to us?
Every human endeavor has the potential to reveal Truth and yet the source of it seems all the more distant. Our knowledge leads us to new questions and our understanding lacks clarity. What causes this elusive nature?
“Ever-present is this feeling within us that there is something beyond, something infinite which we can never reach with our thought and intellect. We intuitively perceive it, yet we fail to grasp it. This feeling of infinity is so persistent within us that we can never shake it off. It seems to be the very basis of our existence. Whatever we perceive and conceive of is inseparably linked with it. The acquisition of knowledge is impossible without it.”
Swami Premananda
“It is because we have at the present moment everybody claiming the right of conscience without going through any discipline whatsoever and there is so much untruth being delivered to a bewildered world, all that I can, in true humility, present to you is that truth is not to be found by anybody who has not got an abundant sense of humility.”
Mahatma Gandhi
