The Truth About Truth is as follows:
Truth is a word which represents something which is perceptible only with the intelligent, aware human mind. Animals do not know truth. Only humans know truth. Or only humans can know truth, but this is, in most cases, only potential, not actual. Most humans know little or nothing of truth.
Human consciousness at the "average" level of functioning is purely subjective. This is so whether or not that human is educated, healthy, wealthy, wise even, funny, unorthodox, gay, straight, Buddhist or Hindu or whatever...
This means that the habitual state of consciousness of people is subjective. It is purely the perspective of a circumscribed individual, separate from the world in the sense of having a separate ego-based identity. From this state of consciousness, it is not possible to perceive reality as it really truly is, nor is it possible to understand the objective state of consciousness in any way.
Many scientists function at this level of consciousness. It would seem to be appropriate, because scientists have so much influence upon what happens in our world, that these scientists ought to be aware that their existence takes place in a subjective dream.
It can take some people quite a long time to achieve a reasonable degree of freedom from ego based consciousness. From my experience, it always requires the sustained practise of a spiritual discipline and there is no way that this rule can be avoided in life...
We have outlined the extensive prevalence of ego-based, illusory subjective consciousness, and can now return to the subject of truth. To this subjective consciousness, truth is a concept which corresponds to everything one sees from one's point of view only. One's opinions, especially, become the only form of truth known to the person, and these opinions, formed as they are through automatic processes of dogma induction known as education, are very difficult to shift.
An opinion is, by definition, not the truth. If it were truth, it would not be an opinion. Therefore when someone says, "In my opinion, the situation is thus and so..." it is quite clear that this statement is automatically false, in that an opinion cannot represent "what actually is", and therefore the statement can be disregarded as misleading or deceptive. It conveys the notion that one's opinions are relevant to the actual state of things, a ridiculous assertion since the subjective state of consciousness is not even aware of itself as part of its environment in any real sense.
In fact opinions of all kinds are all nonsense. Politicians in particular use opinion to suggest truth, an automatic red flag for deception and lying. All "is" statements, all verbs connoting the notion of being including those which use different tense and number, such as "are", "were", "was", and so on, are questionable in this sense, unless what you are expressing is deliberate, conscious metadogma.
Metadogma is different since it allows us to continue using "is" statements, but in an overarching knowledge that our words are a circle, there is never a beginning and an end to the concepts expressed, there is flow, there is change and transformation and we know and understand our words within the cycles of reality around us. Metadogma understands the limitations of language, and sets itself within a new framework, that of the dogma which transcends dogma, which expresses knowledge, perception, label, function, beauty...without the absolute character which applies to other human conceptual formulations.
However, I should not get carried away. Metadogmatic expression is not truth. It cannot directly represent that "thing" which actually IS truth itself. Metadogmatic expression simply takes place within an objective universe, cosmos, at the individual and cosmic levels...the expression takes upon itself no absolutism, no boxes, no three dimensional constructs which resist change and flow. It contains within itself the qualifiers, the paths, the open-ended and paradoxical statements that cannot be taken absolutely and objectively and merely point to the objective consciousness which created them.
No matter which part of the world or cosmos we examine, we can always find something else of which it is a part and therefore relativity becomes the fundamental structural rule of our language - everything always relates to something else. We tend to learn that there is never anything absolute. But with metadogmatic language in its myriad forms using words in particular ways we are free to express our understanding of the Absolute without dogmatic compromise. We simply express the real and singular truth which is Absolute Reality, which is indeed the truth, because it is truth. Everything we examine metadogmatically is related seamlessly with this notion of the Singularity.
