Hartshorne holds -- as holds—as he says, "with Peirce, Royce and others" -- —"that neither 'reality' nor 'truth' can be defined except in relation to knowledge and that our always partial and fallible kind of knowledge presupposes a higher kind as its measure" ("Mysticism and Rationalistic Metaphysics": 467).

And, making the same change in formulation, I could hold, along the lines of Whitehead's well-known statement, that "the truth itself" is nothing else than how things are adequately included, or "objectified," in the divine nature. In other words, there can be no determinate truth, correlating impartially the partial inclusiveness of many concretes, apart from one concrete -- the universal individual -- to concrete—the universal individual—to whose integral inclusiveness it can be referred (cf. PRc: 12 f.).
