About this ebook
In a thirty year study of what was, what is and what shall be, Gary Rutz discovered the secrets to the universe, enlightenment and everlasting happiness. It is not so amazing really, because Rutz discovered what we all have within us. He listened to his own inner voice and trusted that the answers and were within him. After reading thousands of pages of history, philosophy, and critical thought, Rutz used a reductionist method to remove unnecessary complexity. Through accessible language and style, Rutz presents his discoveries in an easy to understand way.

Prologue
The whole world is you. Yet you keep thinking there is something else.
- Hsueh-Feng
Since you already know the truth, there is no reason for me to tell you. And you know the truth, because when you hear it, it fits. It feels right and it passes every test. You know the truth because at some point, probably when life had rung you out like a dish rag or when you were an exploding fountain of happiness; you saw it. Clear as day; Easy as pie. And then, you went back to living in the fake world and mostly forgot.
I know that truth is not the answer. Nor can it be. Truth is like an exercise machine – it just sits in the corner; useless until you get on and ride it. Still, if you want to read the truth once and let it get dusty, that’s all right with me. Or use truth as a coat hanger, or as the perfect flat surface for those boxes you can never get around to unpacking. Use truth as a conversational tidbit, or to remind yourself of your own super depthor even the place to run and hide when you're let down by the untruths you enjoy so much.
When anyone starts a conversation or a book by telling me It’s the truth
, I immediately discount everything that comes after that. If it’s the truth, there’s no need to tell me it is. If it isn’t true, telling me it is won’t make it any truer. Therefore the truth I want to share with you, the truth I know is true, is for information only (FYI). Yes, truth works. Yes, truth is useful. Maybe even fundamental to inner satisfaction. But it has to be your truth before it will mean the world.
"All great truths are simple in final analysis, and easily understood; if they are not, they are not great truths." - Napoleon Hill
It may seem impossible possible that one person could explain the entire universe in three easy steps. . However, if you will believe (just for a second) that the answers are simple then whatever you read here has to apply everywhere. The three steps are either absolutely correct for all situations or they won’t work at all. And it will work whatever you believe. This is your world. Oh, This is my world, but only for me. For you, it’s always been yours, is yours and will always be yours. You are everything you see. You can’t be anything else. You’re in charge. Whatever you decide, however you choose to feel, whatever is your experience, This is you. That’s why the steps will work. Because it will be YOU choosing to apply them to YOUR life.
And we're all a little bug eyed at the world you're choosing to see. Look at you, in charge of the universe but you can't find change for the parking meter. You, in control of every feeling, every action and reaction, every lesson and every answer and you're still spitting mad that chocolate bars are shrinking and the price is staying the same.
First I’ll explain what is all this and then why the different ways we view it cause the appearance of complications. What is the foundation of thought that makes us view the universe as we do? Is there something inside us that can connect with what appears to be outside us? Whatever you do with what is written here, I offer this thought. The only place you will ever find truth is you. And all the answers you’ll ever need are inside you, right now. It can be difficult to want to look there.
