It Is Not Given To Man To Know The Whole Truth. His Duty Lies In Living Up To The Truth As He Sees It, And In Doing So, To Resort To The Purest Means, I.e., To Non-violence. God Alone Knows Absolute Truth. Therefore, I Have Often Said, Truth Is God. It Follows That Man, A Finite Being, Cannot Know Absolute Truth. Nobody In This World Possesses Absolute Truth. This Is God's Attribute Alone. Relative Truth Is All We Know. Therefore, We Can Only Follow The Truth As We See It. Such Pursuit Of Truth Cannot Lead Anyone Astray.
