Is truth relative If so is not that statement absolute?
The comment or assertion 'all truth is relative' is self-defeating in several ways which are similar although stated a little differently. If truth is relative then the statement that truth is relative cannot itself be absolute and therefore true objectively. Also, as correctly suggested in the question 'truth is relative' is itself a self-contradictory absolute statement which cannot be true if truth is indeed relative.

Explain absolute existence vs relative existence?
If the existence of a substance becomes effective only with influences of other existences, that can be called as relative existence. When something exists of its own or without support of anything else can be called as absolute existence. All the things in this universe are relative, when checked based on experience, as universe is simply a matter of experience. But for relative existences to become exist there must be the presence of an absolute existence. Absolute cannot be many, that will be one, as absolute truth cannot be many.
