Truth?

Finding truth doesn’t require a leap of faith.

Impermanence, the temporary nature of everything is true. I can see this. I can hear this. I can taste this. I can feel this.

Learning history and measuring science confirms this.

Change, the idea that life and the universe are a set of processes, whether they are probabilistic or deterministic, or both, is true. I can see this. I can hear this. I can taste this. I can feel this.

Everything is changing all of the time, even time itself will change, and the forces of change itself will change. This is confirmed by a third truth.

Uncertainty is true. We can never have all the answers, even ones with holy attributes, everything can be questioned. We are partially intelligent mammals, some more than others, if someone claims to know it all. They are lying. Uncertainty is fundamental to the probabilistic part of the universe. I can see this. I can hear this. I can taste this. I can feel this.

The temporary nature of existence, the fundamental concept of change, and the unlimited illusions of uncertainty all support and enforce each other.

To come to the realisation of the most obvious facts is to open your eyes, listen intently, eat and drink merrily, and feel your mammalian mortality.
