DAILY DOSE: Raw Truth

Chabad.org
Raw Truth
Iyar 8, 5772 · April 30, 2012

Truth is simple. It has no clothes, no boundaries to define it.

But we cannot grasp the immaculately simple. We cannot perceive truth without clothing.

So Truth dresses up for us, in a story, in sage advice, in a blueprint of the cosmos.

And then, before we can imagine that we have grasped Truth, it switches clothes.
It tells us another story—entirely at odds with the first.
It provides us new advice—to go in a different direction.
It displays another model of how things are—in which each thing has changed its place.

The fool is confused. He says, "Truth has lied!"

The wise person sees within and finds a simple, pure light, unfettered by the neurons of the human mind.
