Thread: Truth and falsehood

    Truth and falsehood

    Hi

    Came across this...
    Truth, if you cleave to it as truth, turnes into falshood.
    Falsehood, when you see it as such, becomes at once truth...
    From Songs of Ryokan, Chinese Poems #103


    On Rev Master Mugo's site http://www.jademountains.net/

    It struck a chord with me.

    Hello Kev:

    On a T-shirt I recently saw:
    Knowledge is not truth
    truth is not beauty
    beauty is not music
    music is the best.

    Thought that might strike a 'chord' with you also!

    and ...

    Truth and falsehood are the mated edges of a double sword
    None alive can separate with certainty one from the other.
    From Songs of Ryokan, Chinese Poems #103


    Guess I should look up the full thing.
