Truth or opinion?
How do you know and identify absolute truth
What is absolute truth ?
An absolute truth remains a truth at all times. It relates to all things at all times and to all persons at all times , in all circumstance at all times , it also interelates with unlimited relative truths . It always remains a fact that can never be changed, at any time in the past, present, and a future.
In todays social media society , it becomes more and more difficult to find any objective truths , and everyone is being bombarded with subjective and relative opinions , often presented as objective facts to various gullible members of the public , or on various media webb sites .
The BBC are also dishonest when John Simpson , their foreign affairs editor, proudly says the BBC never spin anything , that very statement is spin . What’s good for the goose? May not be so good for the gander .
Truth is infinite and unlimited and the limited may know something of the unlimited by the unlimited mercy of the unlimited on the limited .
Krishna says if you want to know the truth , one must approach a bone fide spiritual master , who has insight into absolute truths , the Vedic cultures have always recognised the trancendental Gurus , whose lives are dedicated to Divinity and who are able speak purely and directly from the Scripture and can give insights to all its aspects , with no duplicity.
Political truths and philosophical truths maybe another matter , and could be regarded as relative truths , if they are actually truths , and crucially if they are expounded by those who live in the mode of goodness and thus truthfulness, they will ring true to the truthful ,not to the crooked .
Those who want to be cheated will always find cheaters .
A .C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada would say this world is for the cheaters and the cheated .
Ultimately, if one takes shelter of absolute truth, one is going to instinctively know when truth is before you , Divinity within the heart directly inspires the truthful, and the truth can always be corroborated , by other saints as well as the theological texts passed down from any of the four sampradayas and their disciplic successions .
