Many have tried to give a definition for truth. What is truth? Man has pondered over it from many aspects. What is truth? What do we mean by "truth"?

Science regards facts as truth, and this definition is widely accepted today. Science says: a fact is truth. A fact is that which can be tested and checked experimentally, for which there is proof in the material world.

Suppose I raise my hand and only one person out of so many sitting here says that he sees my raised hand and the rest of you do not see it. Science will say that person is dreaming, because he has no other evidence. It is not a fact, otherwise the other people who are present would have seen the raised hand. It must be a dream. Dreams are personal, facts are collective.

A table in your room can be seen by everyone, agreed to by everyone, but if you say that God is present in your room they will say, "You may be seeing him, but we do not. You must be imagining things, you must be dreaming."

It is very interesting that it is not possible to share dreams. Two persons cannot see the same dream, or can they? It has not happened yet! No partnership, no friendship is possible in dreams, dreams are always personal. For science, that which is personal is a dream not a fact, and that which is collective is a fact. For science, truth is defined as that which is a fact.
