Within language there is the notion of " true " meaning correct, accurate, etc. A " lie " is, in that context, the opposite of what is true. But there is another notion of truth... which is authenticity. That notion has nothing to do with language or even the notion of lies. Truth as pertaining to what is of the heart corresponds to authenticity. ...................................................................... We call it Love or Truth, but alsoTao, the path in the middle, the One that cannot ever be grasped, the open question that will never be touched by an answer, the Impossibility that you are. This gasp in the chest that is forever full of its own glorious emptiness.
