yes because it is relative only to your own reality and to the moment you are inWww@QuestionHome@Com

The truth is available for everyone to discover!. One just needs to seek for truth and he or she will find it!. In one sense, truth is that which corresponds to an actual state of affairs!. The proposition "Light behaves like a wave or a particle" is only true iff light does behave like a wave or particle!. But truth is also found in a person for Christians!. The truth is the person, Jesus Christ!. In either case, it is possible to find the truth!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

The truth!?!.!.!.!.!.and Pontius Pilate asked JC, "What is truth!?" and it always fascinated me that JC never answered the question and it's the only one he never answered!.
But the Buddhists know some of the truth!. The truth is to evolve, to make a choice, to side with the light or the dark, we're all compelled, there's no escape!.!.!.and which ever you chose there are consequences, some good some bad!. Then if you evolve to a Buddha state you will no longer have to come back to earth in another body, you will jump off the wheel of karma and become the pure enlightened being!. Some sects of Buddhism say you will become as a god, other sects say you will live the divine sleep for eternity!.!.!.never having to experience pain again!.!.!.!.but I say, keep me on the wheel because life is the greatest adventure that ever happened to me!.!.!.give me more, Nirvana can wait!.!.!.!.!.!.!.the truth!? The truth can be found, all it takes is time, keep chasing the rainbow, don't give up the faith, one day we will see the actor behind the curtain and when we do we will be like him!.!.!.!.!.the director then, not the actor!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.Yahoo is the best place for amatuer philosophers!.!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

The truth can be found/learned by living!. It may not be easy to find the truth -but simply living won't tell you what the truth is!. You need to not only seek the truth but to experience it as well!. Simply seeking or simply living will not get you closer to the truth, you need to do both!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I disagree!.!.!. I think it is both!. I think that truth CAN be found, and it is also lived!.

Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth and the life!. No man cometh to the father but by me!." So, according to that, truth is God !.!.!. it is Jesus!. Truth is ultimately a person, or personal!.

therefore, if truth is personal, is it not meant to be lived, primarily!?!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

No that's a lie!.
And you get three points back for picking a best answer yourself instead of leaving it up to others in voting!. Subtract three from five and you end up with two!. So if you play your cards right asking a question will only cost you two points!!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Yes!. One must bo beyond knowing right and wrong!. It must be experienced, part of life!.

also, beyond physical truths, if you believe in something body and soul, and if it is life itself for you, then it must have truth somewhere!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I hate Yahoo as well :)

I believe so!.!.!.when we live it, we are allowing ourselves to speak of the truth through our actions!.!.!.and as the saying goes, actions speak louder than words!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Most of everything has to be lived!. Life, values, feelings, have to be experienced to be our own!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Truth is belief, if you believe it then it probably is true!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

All truth is relative!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Yes I think so!.!.!.how will we know if we do not experience!? We learn by taking action :)Www@QuestionHome@Com
