My apologies.

I was also thinking about Politics. How politicians "spin" the truth. And how can you decide which argument is true or not??

Truth, like many realities of the mind, become a matter of Perception.
Say I believe it to be True that Illegal Immigration is a problem, while another individual might believe its Not True. (as an example)


Because the Truth, at least in my mind, is that people are being fed many lies.
And a seeker of Truth, its my/our rersponsibility to discern.

Krishnamutri pointed out that in order to see truth, one cannot be fragmented, but must see the totality.
No worries my friend,btw,Krishnamutri,is agreat favorite of mine,a truly wise man indeed.
regards michael.


Humilty,coupled with boldness,surprises truth to
reveal herself?
