Truth is beyond words so everything falls short.
Even religion falls short, so everything is untruth.
Whatever God we create is also not the pure Truth.
The knower of God becomes God.

Fantastically said! (:
But who is the know-er of the God?
Do you basically mean that there is no super-natural power, but merely a human being who created the image of God in a person's mind?
Nothing is truth, than do you say that the Big-Bang theory is just an imagination?

Everything? Nah, that would mean that even what you said is a lie 😆

In a physical world, what we see, touch, hear stands as a truth, at least in the dimension that we live in. If you are referring to non-physical world, higher dimension, then its a different case and truth there would be different.


We are born in ignorance, live in ignorance and die in ignorance.
All religion and philosophy too is ignorance in another form, but with a difference in that they give a general direction.
As long as we have body consciousness we have to believe in a Higher God to keep our ego in check. But the devotee that has acquired Bhakti sees all as God. It is academic to argue if that is the Highest but the answer is No. Some see God in concrete form all the time but still it is not the highest.

Summer ji,

Why would you call everything related to human life as an ignorance? 😕 If that is the case, then are we even qualified to know or understand Eternal Truth ? 😳

I would agree to that point, but how would you define the physical world and non-physical world? Or in other words, what is the exact difference between this two?
If everything is in fact actually a lie, you can say everything is the truth too! Because where there is lie, there the truth!
And if some things are the truth, as you point out, what would those be?

I really like your opinion though (:



No I don't believe in existence of life in non-physical dimension. I mentioned it to summer in response to his concept of Higher God.

To me, eternal truth, where referred to creation of life, is still unknown. And depending on our own consciousness and awareness level, i think we have our own version of Eternal truth. I think question it self isn't really important at this point unless we address other issues related to life and its origin.

Watever I say is also Untruth.
Because we have body consciousness we have to believe in a Higher God and abide by the rules. I love the concept of a personal God.
Truth is described as that which does not change and lasts forever.
Nothing lasts forever unless it goes beyond Time. Creation never ends and Time never moves.

The universe has temporary reality and keeps changing so it is not the Ultimate Truth. Some look at the universe as the body of God, and it becomes real for them.
It seems that the Ultimate Truth often accommodates various views but finally leads them all to the Highest Truth.
