Right. I totally agree. I often think of that when I hear people talking about facts, forgetting that many of the "facts" of the past, or even "scientific facts" have been discredited after a long time, and how much of what is considered undisputed today will be disproved in the future.
I have always believed that people have to trust themselves first in order to find the truth. But many people believe in everything, in what this person says, in what that other person says, they believe in everyone, except themselves, and then for them their "facts" are simply things that other people said and that it is possible that are false. I think that people should check for themselves, inside, all these things, to be able to confirm for themselves what is true and what is false, and what is the best and what is applicable in their particular case.
A little bit like a treasure hunt where every fact is in fact (pun intendet) just a clue leading towards the real riches of (inner) Truth. 🦚
Quite so!
Thanks to you and cheers!
Oh yes, you mention something that is very underestimated thanks! Absolutely, a couple of years ago " facts" were exclusively scientific papers, whereas a 'fact' today can simply be something I found somewhere on the internet, or what my parents say.
Even with how mainstream media and the entertainment business evolved, some people take their authority so serious they take all the information they get there at face value.
I like what you said, we all shall find out what is true for us and what not. In the vibe of Sovereignty, I feel like now is also a great moment to think for ourselves how we would "define" a fact for ourselves. Just like creating your own user guide of like "at what point is something irrefutable for me" or "how do I usually need to be convinced to believe something is true"
Simple reflections like that invite us also to consider our flexibility towards 'hard facts' in general. Gives us a little scale to understand our 'necessity' of facts and in which contexts for example etc.
Cheers!! Happy Weekend!
