The One Question


For those of you who are on your spiritual journey, regardless of whether you're at the beginning or on the path for many years, the one thing you need to be absolutely honest about, the one question you need to get really clear on is: "What is more important to me - do I want to feel good or do I want to know what's true? And the reason you need to ask yourself that question is this: the vast majority of truth seekers out there aren't really in it for the truth. They THINK they are, but they're not. They're in it to feel good, to feel better. And that's why the spiritual industry has turned into a multi-billion-dollar market designed to provide you with strategies on how to feel good about yourself. But it isn't about the truth, it never was, because truth doesn't always feel good. In fact, it rarely ever does and what feels good is rarely ever true. There are a million and one ways to feel good but only one way to see the truth. The question is: what do you really want? You may say you want the truth but can you handle the truth?
