In fact, ultimate truth does not even need words or explanation.
That is because this whole world is already truth. Just see. Just
hear. Just smell.
From moment to moment, the universe is always
giving us a very wonderful Dharma speech about the nature of
truth.
The sky is blue. The trees are green. Salt tastes salty;
sugar is sweet.
When you see, when you hear, when you smell,
when you taste, when you touch, when you think - everything,
just-like-this, is the truth.
