"truth or truthfulness is more a process."
The reality you perceive is the truth for you
"For me truth means exposing distorted or limited notions in both the inner and outer realities"
There can only one reality. Rest is all Maya, illusion.

For me truth or truthfulness is more a process. It means finding out or seeing what has been hidden, concealed. Close to this understanding comes the Greek word "aletheia" = truth, exposing the concealed.
I don't like the concept "absolute truth". And I feel quite suspicious about enlightened masters, who declare they have found it. At the very minimum I consider their understanding to be quite limited, although I don't doubt the authenticity of their experience.
For me truth means exposing distorted or limited notions in both the inner and outer realities. It means also finding out aspects and structures that so far have been hidden. These hidden structures can be found both in the objective domain and in the subjective and they can also be energies and emotions.
When something in the subject, "I", gets revealed it is moved form the "I" to the realm of objects. The mind is something the "I" can look at and therefore it belongs to the domain of objects.
The mind is not felt as an outer world. It is a new domain appearing in humans, a self-consciousness, a recognition of inner functions and structures, that the animals don't have. Also among humans there are huge differences in how evolved and conscious this domain of the mind is.
