Bjorn:

Of course that nobody can organize truth. That is precisely what happens
with religions. They create a creed and claim that the creed is the truth.
Truth only reveals to the individual that really hungers for it and cannot
be communicated. It demands direct perception. That is why it cannot be
organized.
