Why is it that most people do not care about understanding the truth

[WhatAWondefulWorld]

Why does nobody care about understanding truth, not one of my friends, family, or teachers care about the truth of reality. they only care about being happy.

I need understanding, I have a deep thirst for understanding. I would rather understand and be sent to eternal hell, than be deluded by all the false beliefs that society imprints on us.

@WhatAWondefulWorld Because we are ahead of our time. You realize people on this forum are the 0.001% of the population, that were born to early into this world, where the world population is mostly stage blue and orange. Just be thankful to have found this path, and don't worry about others. 

It's often a projection of your own self when you care about others too much.

You just answered your own question. If my highest priority is the journey of discovering truth, then happiness has no more relevance than sadness, anger, frustration etc. If I start off a truth journey with an idea that truth is only to be found within happiness, then I have already failed, because I am not open to searching for truth within sadness, anger, frustration etc. I’ve failed before the journey has even begun.

Someone that seeks happiness, security and comfort is not oriented for a journey and exploration of the totality of truth.

It’s great to be so open-minded to be willing to search for truth in eternal hell, yet I would be cautious about setting up a limited construct. Above, we’ve already made an assumption that society imprints false beliefs upon us. We have therefore blocked ourselves off from seeking truth within societal imprints. Perhaps there is truth to be found in both hell and societal imprints.

Truth = Happiness. Every one is looking for the same one.

Can’t be what you believe you need, just a word of caution.   That ‘society imprinted beliefs on you’ is also worth letting go. Just an opinion here.

@WhatAWondefulWorld There’s no salvation man. Loving & Healing is eternal, neverending. It's Infinite it's Infinite. 

God has no end it doesn't know for end or limits. 

God God God God.

Because there are different types of personalities. Some of them more oriented to find the meaning of existence and others more oriented to practical day to day things. Check MBTI personality types.

Lack of love turn one to never look deeply inside.

I was there. I m still there. Still learning still on a path.

Wanting truth for ? that would need a why.

Why do you love truth ?

And who is the one who choosed to value 'truth' ?
