Seeking the truth? Try our “One Second vs. One Lifetime” method
The way of finding the truth about life, which applies to every being, could not be a better trick devised by its developer. It is like an extremely surprising end of a movie.
In this method, we will show you what/where the truth is and ask you to spare one second rather than a lifetime.
But we need to explain a few things first:
Imagine a person who insists on finding the truth of life. He or she may spend a lifetime, with lots of efforts including, among others:
1- Internet search
2- Falling in romantic love again and again by finding a huge meaning in someone’s eyes, build, manners, voice, etc.
3- Establishing a family and giving birth to children and raising them
4- Being rich
5- Practicing sports, yoga, meditation, etc.
6- Reading and specializing in something
7- Visiting holly places and trying to find a connection
8- Taking pills or herbs all time
9- Analyzing life and others
10- Trying to be wise
11-Working in order and doing particular things on a list every day
12-Being good to others
13-Saving the planet
14- Changing the world
15- Volunteering and philanthropy
16- Taking refuge in something sacred, etc.
One may spend a lifetime seeking the truth in many ways.
Have you noticed how angry the protesters of a cause like animal rights, women’s rights, workers’ rights etc. can be?
Have you noticed a person who has dedicated his or her life to something and becomes angry with and critical to others in failing to believe and specialize in that something?
Have you noticed a true “hero,” say a celebrity, who gives lots of good public messages and does lots of good deeds, ending up dying of cancer or another tragedy?
None of the above things are wrong. You can freely dedicate your life to any of them. We especially like to work on the environment, animal rights, human rights, our planet, etc. on other platforms.
Nevertheless, you may feel that you are lost and your efforts were in vain over the years as you realize that you are not the developer and organizer of things. You may notice something smarter is out there.
Our One Second vs. One Lifetime method
Dare to just spare one second to look inward.
Concentrate on your heart center. If you feel something like hugging, bowing or even prostrating before, smiling at, loving unconditionally, others, you have found the truth and you may feel joy whenever you come back there. If not, let “how to look inward” be your actual “seeking” to find the truth.
Your “heart” center is the gateway to enlightenment, and your awareness of and sometimes return to it will lead you to: a good lifetime, understand how great a gift it is, make the right decisions, increase your vibration, stay away from attaching to illusions, find it more meaningful to do the above-listed things, and let go of your ego so that you will realize the cause of your suffering and pain, including physical ones, etc.
Your true nature is coded within you, not outside. The outside elements may just reveal it not give it to you.
It is a matter of priority. You may not have noticed the beautiful olive or willow tree in the neighborhood as you have not focused your attention on it but one day needed to examine such trees for an assignment or project, etc.
If you find what is within you, you may want to come back to it when some doubts or worries arise and acknowledge that the real you are there, not in the forms life can impose you to be, not in the illusions your existence is steered to dwell in, not in the criticisms of others.
Looking inward is not our idea, for sure. It is the essence of all serious spiritual teachings and practices toward enlightenment.
Let it be your true anchor point in life and try to make it your priority to come back there regardless of whatever happens.
As we said in the beginning, it is the most interesting surprise of the creator and developer of the “game” of puzzlement of life. Once you solve it, it will really work for your highest reality, fulfillment, and satisfaction.
