This may come as a surprise to many, but if you stay with me, I will explain why this is so. Before doing so, however, I must emphasize an important truth: the fact that there is ultimately a single root cause of war and chaos means that any attempt to address these issues without tackling this core problem will only lead to the continued perpetuation of madness. Efforts to fix symptoms while ignoring the root will never bring true resolution.We must...2025-04-0234 minThe AwakeAble PodcastThe AwakeAble PodcastThe True Nature of Thoughts and ThinkingThis is a free preview of a paid episode.

Yet, despite their efforts, they often feel as though the Truth remains just out of reach. Why does this happen?The fundamental issue lies not in the absence of Truth, but in the very act of searching itself. The belief that Truth is something to be found implies that it is distant, separate from the seeker. However, Truth is not an object or a place—it is the very nature of existence, ever-present and inseparable from one’s own being.One might ask, “If Tru...2025-03-1213 minThe AwakeAble PodcastThe AwakeAble PodcastAre We Born Good?
