Where do all major philosophies lead to?

The Sanctuary of Truth is perhaps the most iconic structure in Pattaya, Thailand.The sanctuary is an all-wood building filled with sculptures based on traditional Buddhist and Hindu motifs.The main idea of the temple is to show that all religions lead to the single Truth - impermanent nature of life.




Mind is a mysterious aspect in this universe. No one knows its location in our body but people work hard to satisfy their mind.

When mind desires something, that person gets desperate and does everything to satiate that desire.

When hate originates in mind, that person does not stop at any junction to ruin the opponent.

When mind loves someone, that person does everything to keep the lover happy and blissful.

Because mind by nature is restless, boisterous, perverse, and obstinate, it gets easily filled up and becomes difficult to be subjugated.


But for a happy life, the mind must shed its belief on permanence and rest in the state of nothingness. When the mind is free from the false belief of permanence one can achieve the state of bliss.


You can see that all the philosophies are leading to this simple profound version of truth. And this concept of impermanence is clearly depicted in this sanctuary of truth
