Why mastering Self-Deception is Crucial

[Razard86]

All knowledge, wisdom, intelligence is hidden by self-deception. This means that God-Realization is the confirmation that you are a genius. What does this mean? It means you can transcend any of the top level people in any intellectual endeavor. You might say how so? I don't believe this, it's rather easy to explain so I will.

So they say there is two sides to an argument and then there is the truth. So think about what is being said....let's say you have a broad general understanding of a topic, but you don't have expert level knowledge, and you sit there and watch two experts debate about the truth of something, each perspective is just a battle of self-deception...what do you think will happen when you can see clearly between the biases of the two experts of what their entire argument is actually pointing too?

This is why each generation eventually improves on the prior because after awhile the old heads become dogmatic, rigid, and become stuck in their point of view and someone with an outside perspective, can take both arguments and see what is OBVIOUS. This is why God-Realization, which is just mastery over self-deception allows you to learn anything if you apply yourself long enough. Because you can see the truth hidden between the debates between the experts of their field, granted you have enough foundational knowledge and desire to dig deeper.
