Message Missed In The Adulation of The Messenger

       In the history of mankind there were always great leaders who brought us new wisdom, For instance Sir Issac Newton gave us the fundamental three laws of physic and Einstein gave us the much acclaimed Theory of Relativity.

        The benefits from the work of these two man proved invaluable to physic students over the year.

Apart from their name, many students do not really know the personalities of these scientists and it does not really matters. It is the message they brought that counts and not the messengers.

         The same cannot be said about the two great sages that brought us the teaching of Truth, They are Sakyamuni and Jesus. Though we feel grateful to them for their teaching, current days students become devotees in Buddhism and Christianity adulating them as saints and many do not fully grasp their teaching on TRUTH.

          Sakyamuni once said to his students if one comprehend his teaching He is with him even if He is a stranger to him, For his student who do not grasp his teaching He said the student is a stranger to Him even if he hold on to His robe.

           The Truth that Liberates is absolute and timeless.It is high time we heed the message instead of recruiting members for the fan club.

The Teaching Of Jesus

The teaching of Jesus as recorded in the New Testament is one of the most skillful teaching on the Absolute Truth.

First he elaborate why we need to know the Truth
He stressed that we MUST know the Truth for Only the Truth can set us free.

What did he meant by freedom ?
The Bible state "whosoever believe in him [ ie his teaching of the Truth ] will NOT perish but have Eternal life."
With this claim who can refuse to know the Truth.

Now all one need is to hear his Revelation of Truth

The Bible in one sentence POINT Directly to what he meant by Truth
" I Am the Way the TRUTH and the Life '
In other word all that one need to know is  " What I AM "

In order that people do not literally assume I Am to be the person Jesus, he clarified by adding
" Before Abraham Was [past], I AM [timeless NOW]

I Am is Christ consciousness or the heart [center] of our local awareness in knowing, seeing, hearing
smelling, tasting and feeling by which one know the body, mind, and the world.

His final and most important message was
" No one get to my FATHER except through Me."

In summary to know the Truth is to simply Know  "What Am I ? "

With this I conclude with  the famous quote from Saint Francis of Assisi
" The Truth one looks for is THAT which is looking "
