Sadhguru
What does truth actually mean, and why is it better than a lie?
Truth is what you observe; a lie is what you make up
Truth is what you observe about how life works, while a lie is something you make up. Discovering how life works makes life smooth and easy.
Truth means you have figured out how life works. You observed it; you did not make it up. A lie means you made it up. Truth means you paid enough attention to life.
