This is the only reality we can trust. I cannot help but think the anxiety we feel about truthlessness is rooted in the Abrahamic tradition, which promised the end to ambiguity, because clearly this is The Truth. I seek some solace in the Eastern tradition, where the first step toward knowledge is acceptance of unknowing. It is true that Buddhists do indeed tend to 'check out' of society, which I do not agree with, but I think we can learn something from how they handle ambiguity of reality.
