    O would the Great Lord the gift give us
    To see ourselves as others see us
    It would, from many a crazed act free us
    and foolish notions

    Re: What is truth,can we know it?

    All that you are attached to, all that you love,
    All that you know, someday will be gone.

    Knowing this, and that the world is your mind
    Which you create, play in, and suffer from,
    Is known as discrimination.

    Discriminate between the Real and the Unreal,
    The known is unreal and will come and go

    So stay with the Unknown, the Unchanging, the Truth. ~Papaji

    Re: What is truth,can we know it?

    What I am is truth,so it follows that if I truly want to know truth,I have just to BE-MYself as I truly am,sounds very simple and indeed it is,however fully realizing oneself and more ever so to understanding that is a job that usually takes many lifetimes.

    We can know truth by knowing ourselves,there is no other way if we are honest about it,truth is evident in what "IS",we just have to understand exactly what "IS" Is!

    Re: What is truth,can we know it?

    I think sometimes we confuse belief with truth. Many people believe what they believe to be true is true, good or bad. I agree, truth begins with in thy self and one should always keep an open mind. Truth can be a hard thing to accept in this society of ignorance.

    The truth of everything is less than one inch,
    it is only equal and the lion is one.
    One is free when the door is opened,
    education has the key.
