Thats only true if you have realized the truth, but compassion leads one to guide, you just can't help it.

Maybe it is because on a deep level each and everyone know that there is no truth and that everything is made up, making everything in the long span of existence and equal valid truth

One answer to all three questions. Speculate or ask them, your choice. Either way, both are mind activities.

I theorize a third option though, these leading questions are rherotical and are simply a means to once again segregate people into the spiritual haves and have nots.

Should someone here share what they experience as the truth, I would consider what is said (but then I am a truth seeker). I certainly wouldn't criticise them unless I was able to grasp the concept (understand it on a theoretical level) and then disagreed.

I think reading about a truth which is outside the realms of someone's experience can make some people feel uncomfortable, e..g perhaps threatening their belief paradigm. It then becomes easier to negate this truth rather than contemplate the possibility of it being valid. Easier to stay cosy with what has been established rather than to face the possible pain of adaptation or change.

I imagine the question is subject to cognitive bias, because even Universal Truth is Universal Truth as you experience it and clearly not as other people experience. The thing of it appears to be that whatever one experiences and feels is going to be a very personal and individual experience and feeling.

The resistance you would encounter will be as a result of this, But as you know, I feel absolute truth to be a myth , because it is suggestive of being immutable, Creation, The Universe is never immutable,It's always changing and transforming It follows then that One truth will change into another truth.

You think you have it pinned down and have even convinced yourself it's real. because to you it is, but as I said , It is even now your take on the subject. 100 might broadly agree with you, but 2 or 3 may not, simply because they experience their absolute purity of being in a different way to you.
