Sipra's Diary: Prompt from Project Hamilton. about your idea of ...."TRUTH"

                    Idea Of Truth.   words=162/. lines=24

  As a kid for hand-writing I practiced one page 

 "Always Be Truthful," otherwise,

You'll be thrown to be fried in boiling oil in Hell's inferno

Image of Hell was scary and vivid for liars,

Whereas truth is defined vague and dubious! 

 

As young adult I learn truth is not a mere  word;

But the base of knowledge :Truth,Beauty Goodness,

'Sat-Chidananda' as viewed in Hindu Vedas.

By nature it  is non-changing eternal, not judgemental.

 

With maturity as I become judgmental

Truth comes  to be a  great 'lie '--

That  has not been yet  discovered !

By time new ideas swap  the old to remember

Truth of bygone days becomes myth in future. 

 

Copernicus, Socrates, Galileo, and many others 

Had to die for pioneering new truth, rejecting the past.

Why truth is  so slippery and tricky, not vivid as hell! 

Whether science or philosophy, art or religion,

Ideas of truth changes with time, nothing is eternal.   ***end.
