  1. They are what can be termed as relative truth. By that what I mean is that ‘it is possible to find a view point from where it looks correct’. Sometimes you also need to restrict the view to make it look correct.

  2. well, when you go to any dharm-guru or saint, they always clear your doubts by using immortal examples or some of these sentences, and coz we believe them we take them as assumptions, and assume them to be true.
    But these things are said in the context to motivate/console the person, and we, due to our incomplete understanding, accept them and try to put them in every situation, due to laziness in applying creativity of mind, and fear of failure(even in thinking)
