The Truth is beyond view and is unborn.It exist at all times,but only veiled over by wrong views.
In the buddhist tradition,there are five major wrong views.They are:
1]Satkayadrsti,the reality of an ego and objects[phenomenon]
2]Antargraha,dual views Eg being and non being,permenance and annihilation
3]Mithya,denial of the law of karma.
4]Drstiparamarsa,obstinate view which imply wrong inference.Eg.mistaking the state of thoughtlessness for
   Nirvana
5]Sila-vrata-paramarsa,rigid views in favour of rigorous austerities.

By simply dropping all views esp the above wrong views,Truth is evident.The view that Truth arises after the dropping of wrong views belong to samsara.Truth does not arise or decline

So easy to say, so difficult to do!  (Or not do, depending on one's view).

nice post. I like posts like these in new threads. That way, they're not distracting and they can benefit more people. Also things like that are easier to understand because they're at our level.

Keep up the good work!
