The truth about anything will reveal itself to you. In this universe, if something is real, you will feel it. If something is truth, you will believe it beyond a shadow of a doubt: and no one can steer you away from your opinion. It wouldn't even be worth arguing because you are so convicted that it is truth.
So you ask, where do we get this feeling from?
Our intuition, our gut, our Manipura Chakra, our core, our solar center...however you may refer to it...it is very calm, relaxed, and free of tension when we think about something we know to be truth. There is no uneasiness or nervous feeling. There is just a strong, powerful feeling of confidence in this truth. You never question it and you don't have to.
"Is God Real?" "Should I buy that House?" "Should I marry that man?" "Am I really in Love?" "Can I trust my leader or guru?" "Am I making the right decision?" "Do I really love this job?"
If you ever have to ask yourself any questions akin to the aforementioned ones, there is no truth resonating within you regarding these things. These sorts of questions will never arise when you know that truth rests behind them. It will not even be a thought! It just IS! There is no doubt behind it. The power of intuition is very real. So when you are questioning yourself deep within, that feeling of doubt festering like a sore is because your inner space is telling you that TRUTH is up for debate.
The truth about anything cannot be sold on a "gold platter."
In your eyes, Truth is either real or questionable, but never both.
"If you would be a real seeker after truth, it is necessary that at least once in your life you doubt, as far as possible, all things..."

Does the Bible Speak About The 3rd Eye?
According to the book of Matthew 6:22-23 (of the New Testament), Jesus states:
"The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light. But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness!"
I think it is very interesting that Jesus talks about the eye of the body being "single." The sensory perception of light plays a central role in spirituality and the presence of light as opposed to its absence (darkness) is a common Western metaphor of good and evil, knowledge and ignorance, and similar concepts. Many Buddhist and Hindus believe that the third eye is strongly associated with a "showering light" that comes into the inner space. With that said, the light of the third eye is said to be used for either good or evil once it is opened (or single). And according to the chapter of Matthew, the darkness will be very great!
I immediately think about Adolf Hitler. It is said that Hitler was an enlightened being. He was a practicing yogi at that time and was hell bent on harnessing power and holding a great hegemony over humankind; and for a short while he was successful! Was Hitler the type of darkness that Jesus spoke about? Was his third eye "wide open" to the "light of darkness" that Jesus spoke of?
I think we as humans are all able to harness this power--on whatever level we choose to--once the "single eye" is filled with light! Jesus knew this because he too (if he indeed walked the earth) was "filled with light." And if Jesus did not walk the earth, the scribes of this age did truly understand this .
What other interpretations could there be for these words of this great prophet?
