By which process do you get there?

Absolute CERTAINTY? That seems a bit subjective to me. Somewhich which is absolute cannot have any more added to it to make it any MORE of something. Take a glass of water and add more until it drips from the rim. You cannot add not even on more fraction of a droplet to make it any more full. It is ABSOLUTELY full.

But "certainty" with something within yourself. You can say, I am absolutely certain of something, but is it really ABSOLUTE. If it was it would be factual and not "certain."

Maybe you mean it like "absolutely SURE" or you are wondering about absolute TRUTHS? The absolute truth is when no more can be added to make it any more truthful. It is filled up with truth, whole and complete.

I apply this idea like this:

Take a concept or principle.
Work it out in the world, be it wisdom or actions. Test it, just like science. Does it work, does it always work? Has it ever failed?

Yes, it works.
Yes, it always works.
No, I have never witnessed it failing, ever.
It is an absolute truth.

Doesn't matter if you are talking religion or science, love or gravity, it all works the same.

Or, so it seems to me.

Hope this is what you are looking for!

Thinking people seldom get to absolute certainty. There's just degrees of confidence, since none of us knows everything.
