Seek the Truth ~ It hides in plain Sight
Seek the Truth ~ It hides in plain Sight
Michael Malasnik
Who or What am I?
As an age old question, does it somehow reveal that deep down inside of all of us lies the
innate and true sense of who we really are ~ but have long been conditioned to forget?
Our physical bodies are simply the part of us that our eternal selves use to have this human experience we know by our name. Remember the part of you that sees, thinks and knows and it will serve you well...
The unexamined life is not worth living.
~ Socrates, Father of Western philosophy
Those who are unaware they are walking in darkness, will never seek the light. ~ Bruce Lee, American marshal artist, actor and

The ego is only an illusion, but a very influential one. Letting the ego-illusion become your identity can prevent you from knowing your true self. Ego, the false idea of believing that you are what you have or what you do, is a backwards way of assessing and living life. ~ Dr. Wayne Dyer, American Philosopher

All that you seek is already within you. In Hinduism it is called the Atman. In Bhuddism, the pure Bhudda mind. Christ said 'the kingdom of heaven is within you.' Quakers call it the 'still small voice within.'This is the space of full awareness that is in harmony with all the universe, and thus is wisdom itself. ~ Ram Dass, American spiritual teacher
Tale of Two Wolves ~ Native American
Indian Legend
“Once upon a time, I dreamt I was a butterfly, fluttering hither and thither, to all intents and purposes a butterfly. I was conscious only of my happiness as a butterfly, unaware that I was myself. Soon I awaked, and there I was, veritably myself again. Now I do not know whether I was then a man dreaming I was a butterfly, or whether I am now a butterfly, dreaming I am a man. ~ Zhuangzi, Chinese Daoist philosopher
