________________ I would quote, before ending this essay the following two thoughts about Truth worth brooding over: "The assertion that the human senses are the measure of things is false; to the contrary, all perceptions, both of senses and mind, are relative to men, not to the universe. The human understanding is like an uneven mirror receiving rays from things and merging its own nature with the nature of things, which thus distorts and corrupts it." ------Francis Bacon, "The New Organon, XLI P-41 "Truth is a pathless land. Man cannot come to it through an organization, through any creed, through any dogma, priest or ritual, nor through any philosophic technique. He has to find it through the mirror of relationship, through the understanding of the contents of his own mind, through observation and not through intellectual analysis or introspective dissection." 331
