You are confusing the actuality level with the conceptual level. The map is not the territory. But also it is lol.  The meaning of absolute =has no opposite.  If there is an absolute "anything".. Then it's absolute "everything". So it becomes Indistinguishable from it's opposite. 

The absolute truth is EVERYTHING. And the absolute "lie" is "everything" ?


“God is the Alpha Omega .. the beginning-less  beginning and the endless end . 
He is the first without start . He is the last without end . He is the manifest actuality ..nothing covers him . He is the most hidden essence  ..nothing can grasp him .. nothing below him or more subtle than him .The ego is the belief I’m separate from god . Because being god is too good to be true .No matter how dark it gets or difficult it gets ..no matter how long it is going to take .. my destiny is the infinite happiness and infinite joy and love as the best thing ever ..God .  “

-that’s a me .

Not so.  For the truth is fundamentally something that is.  A lie is fundamentally something that is not. 

Something that is can be an absolute or be objective, but what is not...only imagined...can only be subjective.

Well there's no duality, so truth and false are a duality, they rely on having an opposite to exist within the mind. Outside the mind there is no love or hate, just Love. There's no truth/false, just Love. The love of truth is a powerful thing, because truth is equal to and the same as Love. Love is neither real nor unreal, neither true or false. So being afraid of lies and trying to avoid what's false will never get you Truth, but the love of it will.

The existence of something does not imply the existence of its opposite.
Being is, while nothing isn't.


Spirituality is metaphysics grounded in phenomenology.

inauthenticity is the closest I can get.

A bit deeper, I see all forms of expression as forms of truth, the very substance things are made off is.... "truth", its evident, in that sense, I do not see a lie in existence.

But seeing inauthenticity as lying and being authentic as truthful can get one far on the spiritual path.

Not worthy of further discussion.


You are God. You are Truth. You are Love. You are Infinity.
