That is fine for those who believe in god, but I don't, so my truths appear
before me, in a more realistic form. each to his own.
More realistic is it...... and how is it they "appear before you" in a "more realistic form" than someone that finds truth in his/her faith in God?
I suppose you would have to be in my shoes to know that. I am a realistic person,
so i see life from a very realistic position, and that doesn't include religion, very
simple from my point of view, but I wouldn't expect you to see it the same.

No, it certainly does not mean that. Some of the smartest posts here are one sentence long.

Thanks for all the above posts.
To find out what this life is all about, to know the whole content of it and not just the superficial layers which we call living, to be aware of its joy, its extraordinary depths, its width and beauty, which includes the squalor, the misery, the strife, the degradation—to understand the significance of all that, our mind must obviously be free. No one can lead you to truth, you have to discover it , every moment of the day as you are living. It is to be found when you are walking in the street or riding in a bus , car, when you are quarreling with your wife or husband, when you are sitting alone or looking at the stars. When you know what is right meditation, then you will find out what is true; but a mind that is prepared, so-called educated, that is conditioned to believe or not to believe, that calls itself a Hindu, a Christian, a communist, a Buddhist—such a mind will never discover what is true, though it may search for a thousand years. So, the important thing is for the mind to be free. And, can the mind ever be free?
