Nothing hurts a new truth more than an old error.
-Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
Quotations
Truth
To seek is to deny the truth that is right in front of you.
-J. Krishnamurti
Three things can not hide for long: the Moon, the Sun and the Truth.
-Gautama Buddha
A lie is just the truth waiting to be itself.
-Terri Guillemets
Truth, being limitless, unconditioned, unapproachable by any path whatsoever, cannot be organised; nor should any organisation be formed to lead or to coerce people along any particular path.
-J. Krishnamurti "J. Krishnamurti"
The "truth" of every moment is new, different and ever changing. Hence, the
things said thousands of years ago could be true in the context of "time, situation
and circumstances" prevalent at that time, but it is not necessary that they hold
relevance even today.
-Deep Trivedi
When the force of the desire for Truth blossoms, selfish desires wither away, just like darkness vanishes before the radiance of the light of dawn.
-Adi Shankara "Adi Shankara"
Truth, like gold, is to be obtained not by its growth, but by washing away from it all that is not gold.
-Leo Tolstoy
If you want to understand the teachings of Buddha, Krishna, Jesus or any great
philosopher, you will have to learn to differentiate and dissect their sayings
in two parts, one, 'eternal truth' and second, 'the truth relevant at that time'.
Without distinguishing the two, you will invariably end up misunderstanding their
sayings.
-Deep Trivedi
Never tell the truth to people who are not worthy of it.
-Mark Twain
