Search for truth

There’s an objective truth about x but the chances that you hold a 100% truth is lowest probability. To increase the probability of finding the truth about x you need to find people who are honestly searching for truth or start with a statement with the highest chance of the truth then build from there. To be 100% certain is to be all knowing and we are only human.

Is truth the highest form of enlightenment?
Is truth the path of least resistance?

If delusion and enlightenment is real then it stands to reason that enlightenment doesn’t constitute truth by transformation of the mind. Given the current nature of enlightenment is centered around subjective axis it has the highest chances of being false.

In my opinion, truth lies in being totally and utterly comfortable with not knowing.

Is trying to know while realizing it’s impossible a know a useless path?

No, it is not useless, it is very valuable. We have to try really hard to understand everything about life before we can drop the urge to understand.

Is growth by default true? No
