Three Ways To Discern Truth From False

Vatic Note: I came across this by accident and it was written so well that I decided to post it. Its an excellent guide for discerning truth in information. Today its almost impossible without following her guidelines to know any more what the truth really is. I encourage, as you know, all my readers to use their judgement, discernment and to research for themselves since all of us can be fooled at some time or another. That includes us. I use these very guidelines she recommends to try and get as close to the truth as we can. Enjoy! Its worth the time and effort. Its also a short read which is perfect for more thought than reading. lol

When making our decisions, it is best to get as much information as possible from as many sources as possible. The more we know, the better our chances of making excellent choices. I like doing independent research and the internet is a good source, but also anyone can write or say anything, so we need to know how to discern truth from false.

1) Does what is being read, seen or heard feel right or wrong, not in your mind, but in your soul?

2) Where is this information coming from and what is the motivation of the source and what does this source have to gain from your believing and acting on what this source is telling you. Who is paying the salary of the person speaking and is the information fear driven or love and happiness driven?

3) Is this information about love, kindness to all living entities, fair for all, and will the results be beneficial for all, including all animals and Mother Earth? Set your own criteria for discerning what is best for you above and beyond what you have been taught or programmed to believe is true.

Our thoughts are powerful and this is why we must not follow our mind, which is a programmed computer, but even question our every thought and where this thought came from, and what will happen if we do what this thought is telling us to do.

Trust yourself, God within as your conscience and loving partner and the Soul of every soul.
 with love, Terry
