Page 109 - Knowing The Truth

Harun Yahya (Adnan Oktar) 107

MURAD: You appear really to have chosen the right path. What is
beautiful is what is true.

AISHA: Murad, as far as I know, there are many people who either
don't understand that the impression they see is seen in the brain or feign
ignorance of the fact. These people are respected writers, scientists, and
professors. Particularly those who fully understand the technical aspects
of the subject refuse to explore it or else they pretend that they don't know
a thing about it. For example, are those who have expertise in the fields of
medicine and biology not familiar with the subject?

MURAD: Actually, Ahmed answered this a while ago. Certainly, a
number of people know about the subject in one way or another. If this
subject were limited to the fact that we have direct experience only of
copies in our minds, not of their originals, you can be sure that no one
would have any difficulty accepting it. But everyone who concedes that
he has no connection with an external world and that everything is an
impression in the brain, realizes too that there's another step he must take
whether he likes it not. He must then admit that Allah has created these
impressions. A person who has founded his whole life on material things
and desires, tends to pretend he knows nothing about the subject because
even the mention of these realities will remind him of the existence of
Allah, of the day of reckoning, of paradise and of hell. If that person is a
consciously aware human being, he'll reorder his life according to the
truth. However, when some people are exposed to the truth, they're
overcome by panic. They become afraid and anxious and finally choose to
deceive themselves. As Ahmed said, they think they can protect
themselves from the truth by forgetting about it or closing their eyes to it.
Surat ar-Rum comments on the state of those people who are incapable of
grasping the truth:
They know an outward aspect of the life of this world but are
heedless of the hereafter. (Surat ar-Rum: 7)
