Truth

Truth with a capital "T" (or capital "T" truth) is Truth that is universally valid and relevant for all living beings. For example, it is True that if a living body does not eat food, or drink water, it will die. It is also True that our body is merely a vessel for our Immortal Soul (i.e. our "consciousness"), that a fully functioning body is required for optimal expression and manifestation of consciousness, and that we attain a fully functioning body only by attending to its needs, providing it proper and supportive growing conditions, and heaping upon it lots of love and attention, especially during the sensitive phases of development during the first two decades of life. In the realm of Spiritual Psychology this is referred to as proper development of the physical unit.

Truth with a capital "T" can be distinguished from truth with a little "t." Truth with a little "t" is truth that is not universally valid. For example, the statement that "people like to eat meat" is a little "t" truth because it is not universally valid. Many people do not like to eat meat.
