Why Is the Truth About the Creator Not Known by Everyone?

Why is the truth about our own existence — the question of who created us and why we exist — not universally known? If there truly is a Creator, shouldn’t everyone already know it beyond doubt?

It’s a fair question. But before we turn the question toward the Creator, perhaps we should first turn it toward ourselves.

Are We Really Searching?

Think about what occupies most of our attention in daily life. The topics that dominate the media, the conversations we have with friends — politics, entertainment, money, relationships, careers, sports. Almost everything revolves around this temporary world that will, inevitably, end.

We can be incredibly intelligent, resourceful, and creative when dealing with worldly concerns. If we lose a job, we analyze every possible opportunity. If we get a troubling health issue, we research endlessly, consult experts, and spend sleepless nights seeking a cure. If we feel wronged, we fight tirelessly for justice. Even for trivial things — the meaning of a dream, the ending of a movie, or finding the best deal on a pair of shoes — we can spend hours searching for answers.

But how much time, in total, have we spent sincerely and systematically seeking the truth about our own existence? How much of our intelligence — that remarkable ability to reason, analyze, and question — have we used to explore the most important question of all: Do we have a Creator, and if so, why are we here?

The Forgotten Priority

Maybe the reason the truth is not widely known is not because it’s hidden — but because almost no one is truly looking.
We may assume there is no answer simply because the people who claimed to have one often spoke nonsense, contradicting both reason and each other. Many religions have presented pictures of the Creator that sound like myths, shaped by human imagination rather than logic. So we throw out the entire idea — without distinguishing between falsehood about the Creator and the possible truth of the Creator.

But would that be a fair method in any other matter? If some people say foolish things about science, do we conclude science itself is foolish? If some commit crimes in the name of justice, do we reject justice itself?

Expecting Proof on Our Terms

Many people say, “If there were a Creator, why doesn’t It just show Itself? Why doesn’t a miracle appear before our eyes right now?”

But what if ability and wisdom are not the same? The Creator, by definition, would not lack the ability to show us a miracle — but perhaps there is wisdom in not doing so. What if we are meant to use our free will, our reason, and our curiosity to choose to seek the truth, not be forced into it by spectacle?

What if the way we ask really matters? A book can’t reveal its words to someone who refuses to open it. When we come to the question of the Creator with assumptions already formed — whether out of pride, cynicism, or lack of sincere curiosity — our minds stay shut long before the first page is ever turned.

Or think of a radio: the signal may be broadcasting constantly, yet only a receiver tuned to the right frequency can catch it. The message might be all around us, but the noise of distraction, arrogance, or indifference drowns it out — and then we assume there was never any signal at all.

Maybe the Creator’s silence is not absence, but a mirror reflecting our own sincerity.

The Hidden Law of Guidance

If the Creator exists — perfectly wise and just — then surely the path to truth cannot depend on luck or birthplace. It would have to depend on something fair, something within everyone’s reach.

And what could be more fair than this: that anyone, anywhere, who seeks the truth with honest, humble, persistent interest will be guided toward it — directly or indirectly?
Some may discover the truth through deep thought and experience. Others may encounter a preserved book, a revelation that still speaks with perfect clarity despite centuries passing.

But guidance is not limited to one path. For some, it may come through an unexpected dream, for others through a quiet event that feels like a personal miracle. Sometimes it arrives as an inner peace that cannot be explained by circumstance — a calm assurance that truth exists, that everything will make sense in the end. What matters most is not the form of guidance, but the attitude that invites it: sincerity, humility, and genuine desire to know.

The Preserved Message

If the Creator truly wanted people across generations to find guidance, there would need to be a message — one that stays pure and uncorrupted, so that even those born hundreds of years later could verify it.

Imagine a book that doesn’t just ask for blind belief, but instead appeals to reason and observation. A book that says: think, reflect, use your mind. A book that speaks not in human confusion, but in a voice that seems to know us better than we know ourselves.

When a person begins to seek truth honestly, using the tools already given — their mind, their conscience, their curiosity — then the Creator fulfills the promise: those who truly seek, find.

Closing Thought

Maybe the truth about the Creator is not hidden from us — maybe we have hidden ourselves from it.

When we finally turn our intellect and sincerity toward this question as seriously as we do toward our everyday concerns, the answers begin to unfold — not as myths or traditions, but as reality itself speaking back to us.

And when that moment comes, the words of the preserved message — still waiting to be opened — will no longer sound foreign. They will sound like something we always knew deep inside, but had forgotten to listen to.
