“In a world that often seems chaotic or overwhelming, we seek clarity, order, and meaning. In the puzzle of our life, we may never fully "find" Waldo (the absolute truth) but the search itself can enlighten us and shape who we are or who we become. ( "Everybody his story")”

“Not without deep pain do we admit to ourselves that the artists of all ages have in their highest flights carried to heavenly transfiguration precisely those conceptions that we now recognize as false: they are the glorifiers of the religious and philosophical errors of humanity, and they could not have done this without their belief in the absolute truth of these errors. Now if the belief in such truth generally diminishes, if the rainbow colors at the outermost ends of human knowing and imagining fade: then the species of art that, like the Divina commedia, Raphael's pictures, Michelangelo's frescoes, the Gothic cathedrals, presupposes not only a cosmic, but also a metaphysical significance for art objects can never blossom again. A touching tale will come of this, that there was once such an art, such belief by artists.”

“Throughout our common HISTORY, the belief that there is only one way to Heaven has only led us to division, war and MISERY.”

“Extremism manifests itself in different shapes and colors. 'The Absolute Truth' and 'the Only Way' beliefs are among them.”

“As the winds of change continue blowing, our thoughts, concepts and everything in life continue to change. There is only one thing that continues to resist change and it doesn't seem to care about change, holding humans back: the absolute truth.”

“Relativism reduces every element of absoluteness to relativity while making a completely illogical exception in favor of this reduction itself. Fundamentally it consists in propounding the claim that there is no truth as if this were truth or in declaring it to be absolutely true that there is nothing but the relatively true; one might just as well say that there is no language or write that there is no writing. In short, every idea is reduced to a relativity of some sort, whether psychological, historical, or social; but the assertion nullifies itself by the fact that it too presents itself as a psychological, historical, or social relativity. The assertion nullifies itself if it is true and by nullifying itself logically proves thereby that it is false; its initial absurdity lies in the implicit claim to be unique in escaping, as if by enchantment, from a relativity that is declared to be the only possibility.”

“In our crazed passion to declare that there are no absolute truths, have we not just declared one?”

“In my thirty years of existence I've come to the realization that all talk of truth is nonsense. Because even though we assume truth to be absolute and universal, in reality, in our human world no one truth is universal or absolute, it's all relative. The only force absolute and universal is love - there's nothing higher, braver or wiser.”

“There is only one truth and that can't be spoken. Rest all are perspectives. Even if all 8 billion human beings see something as truth, it's still just a human perspective, not truth.”

“There is no such thing as an objective truth, it's all subjective. Unless the brain finds a way to observe the universe, independent of the brain, every truth is subjective truth.”

“We are here so that the one awareness can experience itself as seemingly separate and individual conscious beings – of varying species, locations, perspectives, perceptions, and worldviews – each having its own unique journey from its own vantage point in the relative world. We are here so that the one can experience itself as the many. The relative world is an illusion, and the one awareness is experiencing what it is to be seemingly separate beings immersed in the illusion.”

“The one awareness is the only thing in all of existence that is real. Everything else – everything we see, hear, smell, taste, touch, sense or perceive – is part of the illusion of the relative world. None of it is real. Only the awareness peering out from each conscious being and observing the unfolding of the relative world’s illusion is real. Absolutely all appearances, aspects, angles and details of the illusion are not real. The observation of the illusion is real; the illusion itself is not.”

“The most important truth we can know is that there exists only one single awareness. This awareness is experiencing the relative world through each and every seemingly separate conscious being. The awareness that is peering out through you is the same awareness that is peering out through your best friend, the customer you are serving, and that unknown conscious being living halfway around the world. Among conscious beings, there is only one awareness.
This means that regardless of the many and varied narratives swirling around about each one of us, there exists one common singular presence in all of us.”

“There is truth. And there is the illusion of the relative world. Each one of us can choose whether we would like to delve into and participate in the illusion’s adventures, or if we would like to know the truth. Time and time again, life gives us many invitations to explore all types of pathways and adventures. And time and time again, life gives us just as many invitations to know the truth of who we are.
We get to choose — each one of us.”

“Since it seemed like my entire culture was saying there was no absolute truth, I decided the belief was credible without ever actually researching it. I didn’t realize that the statement “there are no absolute truths” is an absolute truth claim. I also didn’t realize that the more people say there is no absolute truth, the more offended they seem to get when someone challenges their particular set of truth claims.”

“My adherence to postmodernism made me hate absolutes. The police embodied absolutes; they enforced the idea of absolute good and evil. Their purpose was to curb murder, rape, theft, drug pedaling, and abuse. They wanted humankind to do and be better, and they were willing to give their time and risk their safety to ensure we would be. They weren’t selfish, they weren’t savage beasts, they were simply trying to keep society from unraveling itself. I wasn’t proving society wrong by ousting moral absolutes, I was sucking from the bosom of its most seductive teachings.”

“What, then, can be the Absolute? The most logical answer is that nothing can be absolute. This answer hides a few paradoxes. If nothing can be Absolute, then there is no absolute. It is impossible to conceive something absolute in the smallest and the biggest, functioning perfectly without the possibility of a mistake or chance. Impossibility of this kind leads to the erosion of the perfection of the Absolute.”

“The lack of understanding and some consensus about the question of God shows the fanaticism of both religious people and atheists who have become atheists more because of hate toward religion than because of “hatred” toward God. Therefore, they cannot understand the difference between God and religion. Curt Gödel (1906—1978) noted, '[I am] against religions but not against religion.' Without intermediaries and 'holy books,' real religion is the desire to reconnect (religio) to the Ultimate Source.”

“The sheer will to power is corrupted not by power itself but by an undeserved power. Undeserved power is only possible through a compromised or corrupt will. Power doesn’t corrupt. Only an undue and excessive power corrupts. If we say that “absolute power corrupts absolutely,” we mean that the insatiable (“absolute”) appetite for power, irrespective of merits, corrupts. But the deserved power or the deserved absolute power, if even possible to imagine, would not be expressed or manifested as such because it would be an actual representation and manifestation of goodness, which is different and opposed to our view of real power.”
