The truth about the nature of the True Self of that which is ontological wisdom is beyond epistemological knowing, doctrinal beliefs, existential actions.
When the strawman who has no brains gets a college diploma, when the tin man who has no heart gets a token of gratitude, when the pussy who has no courage gets a medal of honor, all three gifts comes from a self aware conman that hates those that call themselves smart just because they have a piece of paper, hates those that call themselves caring just because people care about them, hates those that call themselves brave just because they came back alive from the war, yet the scarecrow doesn’t know geometry, the tin man doesn’t love himself, and the lion doesn’t vanquish his fears.
The acknowledgment people can give to you doesn’t mean that you really have knowledge, love, courage, while the very people who don’t think that they have such things already have the potential to them as well as instances where they had actualized that potential. There’s nothing wrong with ignorance, apathy, fear, such are a part of the struggles of life we all experience, yet there’s everything wrong with thinking you’re not ignorant, apathetic, fearful just because someone said so.
Not letting one’s own ignorance, apathy and fear to keep them from becoming wise, emotional, and brave in the face of not being recognized of one’s perfection towards what they seek after is the journey that you yourself go through to really prove to yourself to come to know for yourself is the immediate goal at hand yet after it is actualized, is that really the end all be all? What purpose do you have when your goals that you think has purpose which the so called proof to such goals are ultimately not recognized through others but through an honest look at yourself in light of what you had done?
The land where dreams come true is where all dreams die and rear its ugly head: whatever purpose you have in your life does not necessarily reciprocate the meaning of life in and of itself and so the true purpose in life is yet to be fulfilled. There is a truth beyond the persona that has a name and a form which will inevitably die. That persona is not the (true) self even though it is indeed the expression of the soul that forms matter in forms of matter towards their existential goals which wills such endeavors to begin with. There’s nothing wrong with being an academic, a philanthropist, a hero when you really deserve it although it is easy to delude one self into thinking that you deserve it as well as thinking you are what others think of you and inevitably making the false assumption thinking how you see yourself as is what you really are, which is ultimately false.
There is no place where dreams come true, there is no meaning in validation in and of itself, but there is a place you wake up to from the dreams where there is no strawmans, no virtue signaling, no heroes, they’re just people you personally know and live with as they toil in their labor to live with each other despite knowing how it can all vanish after death, despite knowing their own character faults, despite knowing things can and does change, that place is home sweet home regardless of where that place is, is more civilized than civilization as in the negative aspects of society has against you, the positive aspects of society is at home where you can find rest and enjoy the company of others and accepting what’s behind the curtain that negatively affects them.
All the promises the city life proclaims cannot be escaped even in the farmlands where rules and regulations imposed by the city folks are kept. The tolerance of tyranny in and of itself is not the false virtue that real people suffer for, rather, the love for each other to overcome that which holds you back while the work to maintain such a life is to protect that which you cannot bear to suffer to depart from which is why you put up with the facade since society’s merits can get you in a position to help your loved ones and retire from the unjust burdens of society albeit the same unjust society is not always abused through corruption as it is also used to bring real justice.
Society itself is just as wonderfully flawed as you are. Love and hate it as you love and hate yourself, but keep in mind you are not what you do or believe regardless of what others perceive you to be. Harmony with the world can only be realized through the manifestation of your potential and you may never know until you give it a try. Just don’t be so attached to both the benefits and consequences of your actions and inactions even when things go horribly wrong. Coming to the highest principle virtue necessitates upholding lesser virtues properly ordered to the situation at hand as an active agent of your own life, but to do that, to even seek to be able to do that, you need to overcome the ultimate metaphysical barriers to the metaphysical ignorance that plagues you with falsehoods and delusions.
To confront the truth head on is to seek the truth above all else, an endeavor that the munchkins of this world will never be able to accomplish when their whole purpose in life is such a shallow and simple one. The acceptance of the nature of the munchkins is not really the tolerance of the flaws of the munchkins even though you love them dearly. The real philosopher is a warrior of the truth no matter how much the truth hurts them so. Should the true purpose of life is accomplished, so is the true nature of life is understood to be a divinely necessitated reality whereas there’s ultimately no delusions of duality.
