Truth can not be stated objectively. It has never been. But it can be defined.
What you see as an observer is truth. What you experience as a doer is anything but truth.
This is how far my comprehension goes of the ancient wisdom that we have inherited through our epics and mythology.

Kindly elaborate.There seems to be some contradiction in it. If It can not be objective, then there will be lot of room for elbowing to interpretate the same truth by different observer & to define it becomes erroneous.Which epics & mythology, you are referring to.

What you are referring to social implications of telling truth. It has nothing to do with truth. You seems to be more pragmatic rather cautious in approach in this regard.

Truth in present day is a like a slang if you speak nobody will believe you. Truth requires support to stand up. Truth is like a virginity once you loose you have to loose it to prove.
Truth is term which changes with time and place subjected to health,wealth,happiness,security,fear,etc., keeping tongue position constant.

Your reply is not in contradiction of my previous comments. Actually you are more worried about fall out truth once come in public domain rather than truth itself. It is OK.
