So what is truth? Is there any absolute truth in the world?
The answer is absolutely NO. There is nothing like absolute or 100 percent truth in the world as far as I know.
Truth is normally vary with person to person. It depends on every person’s belief and thoughts. As for one person, this is right as for another it maybe wrong. It also depends upon trust as if we trust in something or someone than we can easily takes it as truth. So trust is also important factor in truth.
There are so many peoples which are working on this that what’s the meaning of absolute truth and there are so many theories are written which says different meaning of “Truth”.
There are Corresponding theory, Tarski’s sematic theory, Coherence theory etc. There is not any of this theory is 100 percent acceptable as they all have critics in it and exact nature of truth itself is not wholly expressed by any of it but all this theories are somewhat take us to somewhere near to the absolute truth.
- As in Correspond theory matters, it is mainly depending upon corresponding and fact. The truth is define as if only it corresponding to actual circumstances while fact is that it should be applicable to every side, than and that only its acceptable. Suppose in ”d” proposition, its true only and if it correspond to the facts.
- As in Tarski’s sematic theory, it stats different than corresponding theory. Facts and corresponding is excluded in this theory. Tarski use two different language in its theory for understanding truth.
- As in case of Coherence theory, it mostly depends upon our own beliefs. Its simplest method to understand as for me. If we take example to understand this theory more clearly than, when someone is drunk and says that ‘I saw blue color panda in middle of the road’, we check whether its true or not by checking other person’s or our own belief we accepted. As in this case,
- Panda normally seen in black and white color.
- There is not zoo anywhere near in area.
- The habitat are not appropriate for panda.
- No one sees panda in nearly days around that area.
- The person which says this are drunken so maybe he experiencing hallucination effect by overdose of alcohol.
By considering this all belief, we reject that statement of drunken guy as we have many reasons to not to believe him.
As seen above, all theories says different things but in our regular life, we mostly depends or you can say use Coherence theory. We sees truth as per our belief. Every person’s having different belief like as for me sky have blue color but other may see it as white.
Perceptive change, truth change. So we can’t blame others to not believe/trust us in some topic as they may have different perceptive.
As per me, the other theory is that we believe something as true when we compare it to something. It’s like if something is wrong than their opposite is going to be right one. So if we stop this comparison than we can’t define between true and false. As nothing in the world is wrong, than there’s no question arise to be right!
There is one thing about truth that if majority of our society believe in that thing than we have to take that as truth. In this case, if you are going to say I’m not going to take that as a truth because I have different perceptive than you get excluded or criticize by our society. Its like group/pack of animals which is going to rights side and if you want to go to left side than you get excluded out from group.
No one knows what absolute truth is. our science is unable to answer this question and our spirituality/region may have answer of this question but I/you may not reach that state yet.
