Everyone is Right!

Wisdom is realizing that no one is wrong. Everyone is correct in their own understanding.

It’s like standing at the shore of the ocean. Some people go and wet their legs. They come back and say, “The water is so cool and relaxing.” And they are right.

Some go a little deeper - they do a bit of snorkeling. They come back and say, “I saw small fishes, and I saw some shells.” And they too are right.

And then, some go deep diving. They descend into the vast silence of the ocean and come up saying, “It’s a beautiful vacuum. There are no thoughts. It is simply blissful.”

They are all speaking the truth - from where they are, from how deep they have gone.

So based on everyone’s level of experience and understanding, they are correct in their own way. In this sense, there is nothing wrong. No one is incorrect.

True wisdom lies in recognizing this - that everyone operates from their own layer of understanding. And with time, with effort, and with grace, the understanding deepens.

Just like the ocean, truth has many layers. And everyone is right - right where they are.
