Truth
I Truth
Definition: Truth is what is true about
goodness, greatness, etc. And verification
is what is true about bonifying, etc.
Clarification: This means that there is
concordance between truth and
verification as between existence and
action. Hence, truth has concordance in
existence and action within itself and also
in goodness, greatness, etc., so that
essential truth gives rise to the verifier,
verifying and verified in which the said
concordance remains intact as do the
truth's final existence and action in
goodness, etc. as well as the
concordance of the truth's own intrinsic
end with the ends reached in truth by
goodness etc. and this concordance
would be annihilated if truth did not initiate
its own act. Now there is one supreme
truth with the said conditions that is the
causal origin of all other truths, and all
other truths are directed to it.
Nature: The essential intrinsic correlatives
of truth are: the verifier, the verified and the
act of verifying.
Without truth, everything would be false
and convert into non being and
impossibility.
Truth is the principle of this Art that
enables the artist to grasp its conditions
and to attain true objects: as the verified
object is an image of the verifier, verifying
and verified, so is the artist's knowledge of
its conditions; now verification, as an
image of the verifier, is an image in the
artist's mind where he can knowingly
reflect on the true object he desires,
requires and seeks.
