Finding Truth

I haven't made any posts lately because I have been busy finishing up an MBA. Stasticics was a class that was particularly challenging for me. On more than one occation I got a sinking, hopeless feeling I often get when I am overwealmed and can't do it on my own. During these times when I am stretched beyond my own abilities I turn to God for guidance and aid. I haven't been let down yet.

In statistics I learned that the science of probabilities is a powerful method for testing a hypothesis. I learned that mathematics doesn't allow anything to be proven to be true, only proven not to be false. In the words of the scientist we can reject the null or fail to reject the null, nothing more. Because of this limitation, science doesn't allow a final conclusion to be drawn. Imagine a line getting closer and closer to another line but never touching it. The two lines will never touch, no matter how infinitely close they get. As a matter of practical application the thought makes me frustrated and exhausted. I cannot live my life never achieving full happiness.

Faith is another method for discovering the truth. The faith method starts out using the scientific method, complete with hypothesis and proofs. As the striver gets closer to the knowlege of the truth something wonderful happens, the line on the other side of the equation rises and touches the line of the striver. Light is not invented, truth is not deducted, they are gifted. Light and Truth are alive and act as independent agents of happiness.

The space vortex in my book is made of light and truth. This river of pure living intelligence cannot be entered in without an invitation. The seeker must knock, in this case musically, and if the vortex likes the seekers song, it will take him in. The space vortex allows the Isian into the presence of Eternity, the Isian cannot enter in on its own. Entering into Eternity represents accepting the fullness of light, truth and happiness. All of the needs of the Eight Pearls of Is are satisfied if the voyager enters in worthily. Our desire for Eternal life, hope, prosperity, competence, security, strength, love and autonomy are all granted through this divine power.

The Isian represents you and me and our quest for happiness. Science will take us part way to happiness, but it will never be able to finish the voyage. A life lived like a scientist will leave us constantly learning, but never coming to a knowledge of the truth. We don't have to wait for a scientist to tell us we can be happy, be an Isian and ask God for light and truth to come to you. Seek and ye shall find, knock and it shall be opened unto you.
