True Nature Unfolds is the first true full-length album by the Finnish post-metal band Callisto. It was first released in 2004 by Fullsteam Records, and then re-released in 2005 by Earache Records with different artwork. The lyrics reference Christian themes in most of the songs.

The introductory track's title is that of a geographic coordinate that is pointing to Golgotha, a hill just outside the walls of ancient Jerusalem where Jesus Christ was crucified according to the Bible.

"Caverns of Khafka", an instrumental, is also the name of a game for the Commodore 64.
