Contemplating it seems to provide an understanding that is quite hard to really point at and say yes I know the truth I discovered it in a meditation and this is it.

I like the analogy of 'seeing'. When you see something your vision can be distorted and sometimes you can need glasses. What distorts your vision of truth is attatchment to specific outcomes. If you really want a certain thing to happen to you, you will believe certain things to make it more possible in your mind. To really see without bias needs dettatchment from outcome.
I associate the 5th energy centre (the throat) with truth. Contemplating the ethics of telling the truth or lieing will prove a very fruitful meditation. The 5th energy centre I see as somewhat of a gateway between our inner worlds and the outer worlds. We use speech to convey our inner world to others in order to create the outer world. I have found working on this energy center can bring the inner world and outer world into balance, so that inner intuition about what is true aligns with what you see in the outer world. I have had a few pre-cognative visions that have come true, which has showed me the two can be aligned.
The most mind blowing thing I have realised about the truth is that it is both Relative (subjective or personal) and Absolute (objective or collective) at the same time.
Yes, I absolutely have a similar feeling. I feel as though language has a difficult time capturing the full scope of Truth. I've experienced instances of distillations of truth entering my being. I tried expressing it a few times to people but quickly found out there's not much you can say lol. No wonder Jesus spoke in parables. Same goes for the twilight language of tantra.
