Gopal, help me with this...  If we have the sun, earth and moon:  Sun is truth and moon is doubt.  If moon (doubt) goes between the sun (truth) and earth, earth sees a shadow of a doubt (grin - sorry unintentional play on words)?&nb...

Hi Cedar, I admire you for bringing in Sun Moon and Earth into play as examples of truth, doubt and the observer. As far as I understand solar and lunar eclipse phenomena (and anyone can correct me, if I'm wrong), all three --- Sun, Moon and Earth are to be taken...

Mmmm, very good points Gopal.  Could truth then become a matter of perspective?  How you view the truth depends on which side of it you are on.

Good day.  As you know, I believe that doubt is one of the tools of the wise.  Even when I look at this oddly phrased quote, I view it as a skeptic first.  Little by little, I test it.  If it rings true, then I accept it.  This quote is awkward, i...
