9 SUMMARY
Summary
Nature always changes.
⚫ Science also changes with better facts.
• Environment always changes.
• Social, economic and political values of life change with civilization.
⚫ Time also changes, so we have also to change according to natural laws, new change of environment and new scientific changes.
But basic principles of philosophy should not be changed, yet other values may change according to change in time and other facts. Otherwise old philosophical theories may become antique and fossil.
We should always think properly and deeply, and decide our goal of life and pursue it with lots of efforts, concentration and meditation to achieve it.
⚫ We should, according to our experience, find the truth through intuition and meditation. No human being can find out the absolute truth because the universe is so vast that we are nothing but a drop in the ocean! Hence everybody finds truth which is only partial - that is why Jain philosophy says that differences of opinion about the truth will always be there
