The nature of the Universe

As your experience and enlightenment as to the true nature of the universe evolves during your lifetime try to be open to it. I have found that the more I can apply the scientific method to intuitive as well as scientific experiences the better off I am. In other words if you learn to classify all experiences wherever useful into Hypotheses, Theories and Laws, you wind up with thousands of Hypotheses (that could be true) hundreds of Theories (that likely are true) and likely under 100 Laws (that you are sure are true). By doing this and not discarding any hypotheses if you are evolved enough to do this, you find that often information that you saw no real use for but had a hunch this knowledge might be useful at some point in the future actually was. So, being open minded to see new connections that you would have thought impossible before is necessary to go the extra mile to find out the real truths about life.

Because in the end, "Truth is much stranger than any fiction anyone could ever write."

Here is an example of what I'm talking about from anthropology: This is directly from an anthropology class from College: "A man who was a native American who did not speak English but one day (in the early 1800s) and who lived somewhere on the American Plains with his tribe saw a wagon with a broken wheel. A man got up and pressed his fingers into a moaning animal? and the animal made an awful sound. The man kept pushing on it's teeth and the animal kept screaming."

Do you know what this man was describing to his native American Family on the plains in the early 1800s? He was describing a wagon with a broken wheel. So while the one man was waiting for the wheel to be fixed he got up and played the piano which was sitting in the wagon."

So, when knowledge is new one might be unsure of what it is or even what it means in their own cultural context of reality. But, that still does not deny the truth of the reality no matter what the description is in one's native tongue or what any culture might think about it.
