Does Actuality = Truth?

4 posts in this topic

Does Truth equate to actuality ? What’s the distinction here?

 

Actuality is relative to all experiences and creatures, yet there’s an underlying Truth behind it every experience and all imagined creatures actuality?

 

Isn’t actuality just Truth then? Or Actuality is something you experience here and now, yet there’s something you can access with direct consciousness that would be called Truth. 
 

Then what should we be focusing on? Should we be focusing on going deeper into actuality of the present moment looking at our hands and becoming more in touch with the now, or into contemplation in the discovering of Truth?
 

Is Truth some abstract thing in a far of place, or is it as simple as looking at your hand? 
 

I guess it’s like training two different muscle groups — one conceptual, the other more present and conscious — yet which one is more fundamentally important? Are both necessary to practice and attain all stated results? Or is one more fundamental and important than another?

 

Does looking at and observing your hands to uncover actuality tie into Truth and sense making? If so, in what relation of Truth?

 

Is actuality part of a subset of Truth, or is Truth a subset of actuality?

 

It seems that Truth is more fundamentally important but why? Are they completely different, or two words pointing towards the same thing/quali of God, etc.

 

Any thoughts @Leo Gura

Current Hypothesis:
 

truth = a things direct nature.

Absolute Truth = the direct nature of God.

 

Contemplation/Inquiry: A tool utilized to access via Understanding and direct consciousness the pure nature of a thing.

 

Actuality practice: Reality itself is uniquly special. To uncover its True nature it this sense, it’s much better to actually experience the thing itself and remove distinction/label, then getting all heady and into the land of concepts and imagination, etc.

Truth is the absence of deception. Absolute truth is the absence of structure, because any structure would be relative truth.
