If U R looking for only the Absolute then the only answer is the "Absolute". But in general the term truth , reality or perfection wud be many as it would depend on the contxt or reference point.

What about this? (http://www.thefreedictionary.com/reality)

Reality: is that which exists, independent of human awareness.
Truth : Conformity to fact or actuality.

Thus, Reality + human awareness = Truth.

This reminds me observed + observer = something in QM.

And if human awareness will become perfect then Reality = Truth.
However that is a big if.

How can we b aware of something independent of human awareness as long as we are human ? As for truth- when a glass is half full its a fact and so is the glass being half empty !

Yes thats why we are not aware of the reality. We can only interpret it and experience it in our own way.

@glass: I think those two sentences are just different ways describing just one thing that there is some amount of water in a glass.

^^ which is why i am asking in every galli, nukkad and corner, just one question: how do i know the real real if i am the one interpreting the real and i am also the one (every single time) interpreting person A's real, person B's real all the way to person Z's real?

how long will it take to realize the logical fallacy of circular reasoning?!

At one point "everyone" will realize that "nothing" is certain and "everything" is uncertain.
