What if I Doubt?

So far search for truth has lead me to nowhere, sometimes I think there might be no truth, a delusion that has enclave our fears and made us believe in what might we call the ultimate  truth. From the meta physical to Mathematical world all we have seen is the creation of human mind, so many people with different thoughts and faith with their extreme positions of what might we can say the delusional opinion as presenting as Fact, I Wonder what if I can stay in doubt without taking any extreme position.

Simple was the answer, human mind cannot linger in doubt forever. Doubt demands openness, it asks to remain curious every second, it says “Go on and ask questions”, doubt teaches us “there is no extreme positions only matter of opinion”. Then why human inherently curious being takes extreme position and professes their opinion as Truth?

For this I have to look into myself, nor into another’s life, but mine only, human by nature is Curious, the very first statement I quote is my opinion nor the truth, but why I did quote it as it is not my opinion but Truth?, might this is the only thing we need to understand, saying something does not make it truth but it only shows the opinion.

To elaborate it I came across with the story of Elephant and Men in Dark by Rumi, this allegory shows exactly how we perceive opinion as a matter of fact. If opinions are not truth nor falsity, then what exactly the nature of opinion is?

Our society is divided in to two extremes, for instance take the example of Concept of God, either we are accepting that God do exists, or we deny, human cannot accept that there could be any place in between total acceptance and Total Denial, mind simply can’t accept it, this is why so many clashes erupts when two extremists meet.

What is it like to doubt?  People ask me and I reply:

To doubt is like to find yourself.

Doubt gives the way into unknown territories of believes.

Doubt reaffirms that I am still human not machine.

Doubt reminds me that my Bowl is still empty and I am open to whatever lies ahead.

Doubt makes me patient

Doubt keeps me curious.
