===Quote===
“[[Knowledge]] is an [[eternal]] [[quest]]; always are you [[learning]], but never are you able to arrive at the full knowledge of [[absolute]] [[truth]]. In knowledge alone there can never be absolute [[certainty]], only increasing [[probability]] of approximation; but the religious [[soul]] of spiritual illumination knows, and knows now.” ([[102:2|UB 102:2.4]]) 
===Lesson===
Thought Adjuster: “Diverging and often [[illusory]] [[perceptions]] of [[truth]] cause great divides among humankind, demonstrating that they do not own the absolute [[truth]]. How could they? They emerge in an alien world through the [[birth]] canal as brand-new evolutionary [[creatures]]. Their virgin [[mind]] immediately starts recording their eventful personal [[journey]] toward their [[purpose]] of the ages: to become a shimmering facet of [[love]]-in-action orientated by the reliable and universal truth divulged through the pioneering spiritual work of the human [[Jesus]]. 

“The [[positive]] always has the [[advantage]] over the [[negative]], [[truth]] over [[error]], [[experience]] over [[theory]], spiritual realities over the isolated facts of [[time and space]].” ([[102:6|UB 102:6.7]]) 

[[God]] sets the gold [[standard]] of absolute truth. As a [[human being]], your homework is to initiate a [[sincere]] and eternal life-long quest to expand your ‘truth [[vocabulary]].’ Just as a child outgrows its clothes and has to switch to the next best fit, life will enlarge your truth portfolio through personal experience and [[epiphanies]]. 

Much of what you [[embrace]] as truth is [[relative]], which requires [[flexibility]] in its [[interpretation]]. For example, your outdoor thermometer may display a 37F low, while your indoor thermostat reports a 70F high. Both readings are correct in their relativity. Your age is another example of ever-changing ‘living’ truth. What is true today will be inaccurate tomorrow. 

Those who cannot let go of [[ancient]] truth find themselves in a handicapping predicament, as they are clinging to [[illusions]] — [[delusions]] that prevent them from being [[receptive]] to the latest truth upgrades intent to meter out enlightening booster shots. 

Instead of resenting being ‘corrected,’ a sincere truth-seeker will express [[gratitude]] when he is ‘set straight,’ putting to [[good]] use the buildup of reliable elements of truth that perfectly fit in the mind-boggling, multi-dimensional cosmic [[riddle]].”
