I curled up on my sofa with a bowl of popcorn and turned on the hit movie Sliding Doors. It is a romantic drama about parallel universes, where Helen, the main character, gets fired from her public relations job and discovers her boyfriend is cheating on her. In one universe, after getting fired, she catches the train and arrives home just in time to walk in on her boyfriend in bed with his ex-girlfriend. In the other universe, after getting fired, she first drops her earring in an elevator and then runs to the train, missing it by seconds. She ends up arriving home later, but never catches her boyfriend with his ex-girlfriend. After a long stream of events within the movie, both story lines finish with the exact same ending: she breaks up with her cheating boyfriend and finds herself in a fatefully serendipitous relationship.    In the climax scene, James, her newfound love, is frantically searching for her because she thinks he has cheated on her as well. When he finally finds her, she is on a bridge at night in the rain. He professes that he is not cheating on her. With her hair soaking wet and tears in her eyes, Helen dramatically asks, “Is that the truth James?”    It was as if the Universe was speaking directly to me again, telling me another secret to Awakening, summed up in the greatest question ever asked: “Is that the truth?!”  So, what is truth? The Oxford Dictionary (1989) defines Truth as that which is in accordance with fact or reality; a fact or belief which is accepted to be true or a verified or indisputable fact. There are relative and ultimate truths. Your Truth is based on one thing: Beliefs! The Greeks were the first to develop the concept that every person has an individual Truth. They were the first to recognize that spirituality is an individual journey. This has been the foundation for many great thinkers and grand inventions. You witness this ultimate Truth within the macrocosm as well as the microcosm. You have witnessed an event only to discover that another person experiencing the same scenario had a vastly unique experience and a completely different interpretation of it. You have had domestic disputes with your partners, each struggling to see the other person’s view. Science has proven that your sense of reality and perceptions are alterable as witnessed in the Observer Effect. This Effect proves that observing an act can astonishingly make changes to the phenomenon being observed; the instrument measuring an act influences the state of that which is being observed (Science News, 1998). Similarly, the Hawthorne effect is based on human as opposed to cellular behavior and confirms a form of reactivity in which subjects modify an aspect of their behavior in response to the understanding, awareness, and acknowledgement that they are being observed (Shuttleworth, 2009). Understanding cause and effect, both relative and Universal Truths are essential to finding and emanating your unique relative Truth.    Universal Truths vs. Relative Truths Universal Truths are changeless, eternal, and absolute. They relate to the whole of mankind and our world. The physics of matter such as gravity and The Law of Attraction are Universal Truths. They are independe
