There’s no 100% proof of any religion/philosophy.  No way to prove that the Universe wasn’t made a second ago, with all memories/evidence of a longer past in place.  In light of this fundamental uncertainty, there’s only one truth I’ve become sure of:

I’ve become sure that I must figure things out for myself and endlessly experiment, endlessly play.  I suspect that the Universe only reveals its secrets to those who willingly embrace their lack of knowledge and have fun with it.

    I really like this…i believe you are on to something…i would add that the outcome of each experiment is relative to the person carrying them out…

    So many are unwilling to accept the fact that there are question that cannot be answered through purely empirical methods. Some things must be taken on faith, and some things we will never understand on this side of eternity.

    Interesting. We believe in “love”, by faith, and many other things that cannot be proven. If we only believed in things we could prove or see, my life would be quite boring. Good thought provoking post.

      Agree. Why not make a game of life? Our lack of proofs seem to encourage us to do so

    I agree that it’s important to question what we do and why we do it, to try new processes and laugh at our failures. Well said

      Not even sure that’s a truth, myself. I used to entertain the thought that I was a brain in a vat, kinda like the Matrix. But I do believe in impermanence.
