The two aspects of truth is relatively simple to intellectually understand, and I will be writing about that, the main focus being inquiring into the functional value of this particular concept. When Niko and I first learned of the two aspects around twenty years ago, it was a helpful and exciting experience. I recall, to put it in my own words. it explained for Niko how, for example. those inquiring in K groups tend to get stuck on information from their (and presumably our) own limited subjective perspectives. So,what ‘one’ thinks/feels is true is perceived as being ultimately true, but this obviously isn’t true, as different people have different perspectives. For me the concept took some weight off by presenting a possibility of seeing things in a new way. This gave hope and was experienced as freeing until I reacted to something or other and got angry.

To go into this may take a while, which brings us to the subject, ie, question of time, I will be looking at how K framed his version, though to take his approach as the basis for understanding (by negating it, saying not this, not this) seems to me like a lame way to start, so maybe we can find a way to consciously use his material.
