truth

|

... Her consolation has so far been negative; she has shown Boethius his error without teaching him the truth. ...
By this point Boethius has begun to supply some of these answers for himself; Philosophy has been like a schoolteacher, sometimes impatient but always loving, who tries to direct her pupil to the correct answer already hidden in his mind:
Whoever deeply searches out the truth. ...
The seed of truth lies hidden deep within. ... The vision of Philosophy in Boethius prison cell is both a visitor from the Divine, a kind of Holy Sophia or Wisdom, and a part--a projection, one might say--of Boethius own mind, his ability to understand truth; she is within and without him at the same time. ... So, as Boethius is realizing here, to learn the truth, however slow and painful it may be, is a guarantee of his divine soul and a journey of the soul back to the Divine.
