What is the definition of truth in relation to the world and Brahman?
Synthesized from Source
definition
"Truth cannot be defined, for any definition confines it; it is the silent experience that transcends the duality of the world and Brahman, revealing them as two faces of the same reality."
According to Osho, truth has no definition; any definition makes it untrue. It is an inexpressible, non-dual experience realized beyond mind—in silence, thoughtlessness, samadhi. Hence, dividing reality into ‘world’ and ‘Brahman’ is mistaken: they are two faces of one coin—the manifest and the unmanifest. The world is Brahman expressed; Brahman is the world unexpressed.
Truth can’t be put into words; when the mind is quiet you sense that the world and Brahman are the same reality—one visible, one invisible.
