I think this thread is brill...
gives us the opportunity to discuss how we find common truth...whilst acknowledging that we all have our own perception of truth.

I think it is true (my truth, LOL) that we find common truth in observation of phenomena and in cause and effect of all kinds. As Gem has noted.

And IMO we also find common truth in a higher standard or a Higher Law, as jiraiya and Tzu noted. Belief in the sanctity of all life is the ultimate source and sustenance of humanitarian principles.

Greetings..

Truth is Life.. and, Life is 'IT', creator and created.. Life created 'you', and 'you' create Life.. this is all there 'is', and it neither begins nor ends with the bodies Life has manifested.. understand, and make Life Sacred.

Be well..

Speak for yourself brother, I will put no such limitations on myself. I am FAR more than a human mind, and quite capable of knowing the whole Truth. In fact I already know enough to know that I AM that Truth, waiting to discover myself.

Then I believe it, that doesn't make it true for me or my grandfather or the queen.

The ideologies people attempt to uphold require complete denial of the plain and simple, because what I said about my grandfather was a bald faced lie, and that's all it is.

Hi All .

If we say the sun within our 3d experience Is a source of energy that does Indeed sustain life then that would be the truth of It . In other realms the sun Is Indeed a source of energy but It does not sustain life In the same way . That would be the truth of It . Beyond mind there Is no sun at all .

The truth of what Is never changes. .

What can and does change Is what Is . that Is of life . .
