Truth is beyond time and mind or space

The quest to know God is the quest to know the truth. All identifications we hold in our minds - be it nationality, religion, race, or sex are but concepts in our mind. A concept is just another idea that we hold in our memory. These mental concepts, our limited identifications with the world outside, itself become the obstacle to know the truth, as truth is beyond time - it is beyond mind itself. Also, since words arise out of the mind, anything we say about the truth itself corrupts, dilutes and distorts the truth. Truth can only be experienced in silence, when time and mind cease to exist.
