Unity is all about 'truth'. And there are facts as well.

Some of these labels are called facts. For example, eggs are white, brown, spotted. I always felt truth was a sense we have in us about what is always reliable, that enables us to navigate life with some kind of precision. The mind applies the word truth to different kinds of experiences. The search for truth in a court proceeding. Confirmation of hypotheses in science. The search for reality in the spiritual sense. All I think is that mind is interpretation once removed from more direct sensory experience.
