"Return To Forever"

                                                            I want a "Return to the Truth" .   I will leave this >Truth< to be regarded as "Self-Evident" for now, because I am reluctant to explain it in depth .   I need "IT" "out there" in the broadest way, and rely on everyone's Understanding of Truth as it currently exists .  I have presented Zen and now Sufism as "a means toward an end", that End being the above, a Return to the Truth .   Specifically, Zen is a "Way" to establish and maintain >Reality<, rather, the Perception of Reality, so that the so-called Truth of Reality can be experienced .  My  Gentle Readers  are  firmly  aware  of  my  pet phrase :  "We create our own 'Perceptual Reality' " .   Here it is and here it MUST-BE that one's Perceptual Reality be in accord, in HARMONY, with prevailing Conditions, meaning, if the Prevailing Conditions include Lie Telling ASSHOLES then the Perceptual Reality must recognize those Conditions and be able to "Call a spade a spade" ,  NOT  to call a spade a club or diamond .   I have communicated my own personal adherence to the Ancient Kung Fu Order whose Primary Foundation is to "Protect the Truth" .  I insist, it takes "GUTS" to Defend the Truth, and the Truth Seeker/Protector must have the Spirit of a Warrior, a HUMBLE Warrior but a WARRIOR, none-the-less ---there is a name/title for such a one, it is "Bodhisattva Warrior" and that title serves us perfectly .   Bodhisattva = Kind, Compassionate and Generous, and I supplement that as follows :  Skilled, Reliant and Valorous .
