What is truth? (C) phi. truth

 



    On the previous article on "What is truth A and B" I talked about the different way we establish truth as our general foundation and how as we grow we change and form our ideas of what is truth to us. On this article I will talk about a different form of truth in which I call "philosophy truth or philosophical truth" (phi. truth). This is something that I will begin to use in other different articles that I will white to show people a Pacific kind of truth.

   I found myself in many occasion when I AM speaking to somebody regarding to an idea or belief that I have in which I consider to be the truth, that people world immediately respond by saying "well that is your belief". And for me sometime it is more than just a believe it is what I consider to be a general truth or my truth. You must remember that sometime my truth does not necessarily have to be your truth and the same with others. When people tell you "that is your belief" that is another way of saying that your believe only have credit for you. The only way that can be true is that your statement is the only one that has ever been said and has never been told as a general information. But when you are speaking about an idea or belief that is general recognize, then you cannot consider that to be only your belief. But when you hear people say "that is your belief" for me that will be consider as an insult and trying to discredit what I'm trying to say. And they are trying to emphasize or discredit your idea or belief as limited only to you.

    So let me begin by defining the meaning philosophy truth. There are truth out there that is based on fact and evidence, but then there are truth out there that are based on philosophy. The philosophy truth is basically made up of common sense, personal intuition, philosophical view and general majority believe.You know that your heart is beating because you are alive but yet you cannot feel your heart moving. If you press one of your nervous you can feel the pulse but still you cannot feel your heart moving. But the truth is your heart is beating right now. So I will consider this a philosophical truth because I know it is true but I cannot prove it, unless I have some medical equipment.
    Like for example religion is in general a philosophy. Although some archaeologists have been able to prove some of biblical statement, there are other that can still be consider as stories. Like in the Torah when Moses spoke to G-d, a lot of people believed to be that to be true despise that there is no evidence to be proven because at that time there was no witness or recording device. But it does not mean that is not true or as I would say philosophical truth. And like in the Bible where they has been claimed that Jesus is the son of G-d and yet there is no evidence to indicate or proof. But it does not mean that it cannot be true or philosophical truth.
    All of this people can say that it is absolutely true that all the statement in the Bible or in the Torah are true. I'm not going to get into a debate right now for it would take too long to define. But just because one does not have the evidence or the proof it does not mean one can hold it to be true. But I personally in order not to impose my belief on to other even though I do not have any evidence or proof I would claim it to be my philosophy truth. In another word I see it as my truth but you may see it as a philosophy.
    Here is other example when I say that the creator is within me other will dismiss that for they believed that the creator is somewhat above. So my statement will be consider as a philosophy truth. I believe with all my heart and mind and soul that the creator is within me. Despise all my limitation and in profession I still believe the creator is within me. But I am not alone in this idea, many of my Jewish friend and many other religion and philosophical Institute believe in the same thing. So it will be a improper statement to say "that is your belief". Although I understand that when people say this is they are trying to say that it is not their point of view. So then people should be saying to others "that is one way of view it". But people do not like to say it in that way because that will be given credit toward the point of view.

 
    We all work hard to seek for the truth in order to grow a greater understanding of life or of science. And when we believe we have found the truth or philosophical truth it will become part of who we are. But the trick is learning to respect one another of what we consider to be truth for you would never know the maybe you could be wrong and the other may be right.

    Before leaving any common please take a look at the important note to your right.

   Bless you all and be well.
