' Unalterable Truths '...

In the highest level there are utterly unalterable truths.

They are not got by logic, worked out by intellect, or discovered by observation.

They are announced.

No one can know their mysterious source in the sense that we know anything else.

It is unique, indescribable, and hence unnameable, unimaginable, and beyond all the forms of worship given to all other gods--nowhere to be found in place or time, history or commentary.

It is more honest to let the Mystery of Mysteries remain as it is than to repeat ancient portrayals or create new ones--all the labour of the human ego's trivial or even misleading ideation.

Within that silent seeming void, which is as near as most are likely to come, they may be pacified, content, perhaps even dissolved during those utterly surrendered lapses.
