The great assumption

The great assumption                                                                              

We are the lie no one ever told
who readily becomes the lie

we tell ourselves and others.
We are the great assumption

that never proves true and yet
we can never quite disbelieve,

escape our own lies and the lies of others.
The whole of humanity is whispering lies,

the smartest people in the world, in history,
insisting upon our collective view of truth.

So it all begins with faith and ends in realization,
if it turns out that you and I and the world

and our assumptions about it
are lies to ourselves and others

and Truth is after all what the mystics
have always asserted it to be.

O child of God, you are the living lie,
Meher said, of the truth that is you.
