Unfortunately with social and a mainstream media 95% of people are taught what to think instead of how , and its getting worse .

One needs to aquire the means  to identify truth .

Although morals , ethics , philosophy , theological sciences as well as clear objective sciences are essential in helping us  to access truthfulness, we also need to check our own  motivations . Are we sincere searchers for truth .
A sincere searcher for truth becomes truthful and honest about their own flaws and weaknesses , an honest assessment of oneself is useful because truth is attracted to those who are honest , the possitive is attracted to the negative . Humility is the first point of knowledge. One of the symptoms of truth is to see the true equality of every living being and become their well wisher .
There are many other symptoms of truth , such as not to encroach on others territories everyone has their lot , and  they deserve it , and we should be in the minxd to preserve it .

Purely translated theological texts from every culture chime in the same way , as do good philosophical thoughts . Dont let anyone get in your way to understand truth and thoughtfulness , find a truely honest teacher who have the symptoms of truthfulness, and apply their teachings truthfully .

The vedic way ..

No question of in or out .

Heaven or hell

But rather prescribed methods of many different regulations for persons either in ignorance, in passion , in goodness , or who have transcended material living .

The Vedas teach in very practical ways that everyone can live with purpose . The outsider may look in without understanding the variables of the Vedas and how everyone is catered for
The progressive march of social and spiritual mobility for everyone is the Vedic way.

To understand truth , first understand the untruthful.
When you understand the untruthful and the qualities they have and their Modus operandi , from that point you can test the truth , the truth is self evident to the person who lives in truth .
There is no American truth , British truth ,Chinese truth, or Indian truth , truth is truth and truth comes along with beauty and harmony.
The Vedas list the four types of persons who can not surrender to truth and the five types of irreligious persons , some of whom claim affiliation to religion .
We live in the material world , and it begins with deceit , illusion, and ignoring truth .
Nevertheless, the truth and the absolute truth can be accessed by those who are seeking absolute truth . Once one thing is known in truth , everything is known
