"Where is truth, my lord?"
 
What is it you wish to know?
	I want to know the truth behind all things.  
	The meaning of life!
If you were to hear the truth, 
how would you know it to be true?
	I trust in you to tell me truthfully,
	My master!
How am I to know my truth is absolute?
	You know all!
	There is nothing beyond your grasp.
Have you never felt you knew all?
	Once,
	Before I found my faith.
So your faith is without truth?
	No,
	I do not understand…
Your faith in me means you must believe in me,
So is your truth not unproven?
	I think that you are the enlightened one;
	You, not my faith knows the truth.
I know the truth only as I give it to you.
Should I not have faith in my own truth?
	You need no faith,
	All that you know is true!
	You are the giver of truth!
I am the giver of truth to you.
Who has given me truth?
	So where does truth lie?
The truth is a very elusive thing.  For each being there is
a different truth.  The mighty lion holds a different truth
than does the scared rabbit. I behold a different truth than
you. The absolute truth lies in the mind of the beholder.
One must only remember that each person must have his
own truth, but accept that the truth of others may be in
disagreement with your own.
