TRUTH
Truth is the Ultimate Form (or the inherently Perfect State) of "knowledge" (if mere knowledge becomes Realization).
Truth is That Which, when "known" (or, rather, when fully Realized, even via the transcendence of all knowledge and experience), sets you Free from all bondage and all seeking.
Truth is Eleutherious, the Liberator.
God is not the awful Creator, the world-making and ego-making Titan, the Nature-God of worldy theology. God is not the First Cause, the Ultimate Other, or any of the Objective Ideas of mind-made philosophy. God is not any Image created (and defined) by the religious ego. God is not any Power contacted (and limited) by the mystical or the scientific ego. God is not any Goal that motivates the social ego.
God is Truth, or That Which, when Perfectly "known" (or fully Realized), sets you entirely Free.
God is Eleutherious, the Liberator.
God is not, in Truth, the Cause (or the Objective Origin) of the conditional world and the ego (or the apparently separate self-consciousness). All causes (including any Ultimate Objective Cause) are only conditional modifications of conditional Nature.
Every cause is moving Energy, or the conditional mover of Energy. Therefore, the Ultimate Cause is, Itself, only Energy, or the Ultimate conditional mover of Energy. No cause, and no Cause of causes, is Truth Itself, since to know a cause (or the Cause) is merely to know an object (or the Object) and not to be liberated from bondage to the search for objective (or otherwise conditional) existence itself.
The knowledge of objects does not set you Free, since it is the knower (rather than the known) that knows itself to be bound. Freedom can only be Realized by transcending the subject (or knower) of knowledge, not by increasing the objects of knowledge. Therefore, Freedom is not Realized even in the attainment of an Ultimate Object of mere (or conditional) knowledge.
God is not the Cause (or the Objective Origin) of the world. God is the Source (or the Perfectly Subjective Origin) of the world. The Cause of causes is not Truth, since to know such a Cause does not set you Free. Therefore, if you are to be Free, the Perfectly Subjective Source of that Cause (and of all causes) must be "known" (or, rather, Realized in Truth).
The Existence of God is not proven (or even rightly affirmed) by appeal to the process of objective causation. But the Existence of God is Self-Evident in the "consideration" of the Perfectly Subjective Source of all causes, all effects, all seeking, all mere (or conditional) knowledge, and the conditional self-consciousness that engages in causes, effects, seeking, and mere (or conditional) knowledge.
God is Consciousness, or the Perfectly Subjective Source of the apparent conditional world and the apparent conditional self. The Deep Space of Consciousness is the Matrix in Which the Origin and the Ultimate condition of conditional self, mind, body, world, the entire cosmos of conditional Nature, and the Universal Field of Energy is inherently Obvious. When This (Deep Space of Consciousness) is "known" (or fully Realized), the apparent conditional world and the apparent conditional self are fully "known" (and thus transcended) in the Realization of Truth. To "know" (or to Realize) God as Consciousness, or the Perfectly
