"Truth" Websites

I'm mainly referring to such things like The Waking Times and The Mind Unleashed. Are they really penetrating any lies and getting down to the "truth" of it all, or are they just telling you information which may be false in order to pursue an agenda?

Expecting readers to wade through entire websites to answer a vague question is not the purpose of this forum. Why not pick ONE SPECIFIC issue for discussion?

Many of the articles are BS, but there are some good ones. Really if it is new-agey then they will include it. It really doesn't have to be true.

I mean the validity of such sites. The claim that they are "awakening" people to some sort of truth.

Are you familiar with the doubling power of 2? If a book, scripture, Master, website, philosophy or methodology 'enlightened' or 'awakened' just two people per generation then in less than a thousand years the whole world would be enlightened.
Truth websites = dreamers or scammers.

What that guy said.
I know the kind of sites you're talking about. Horsecock. People managing to take what might have been otherwise enlightening personal experience and turning it around to be about themselves, how great they are, and how they can help you live like they do! Cause they've unraveled the secret, and apparently it is finding something to be self-righteous about. Like that's a page from some new book.

QFT. I feel that profit often exists under the thin veil of what purports to be self help.
