Summary/Abstract: The author elaborates a truth as historical phenomenon, as a process of unity and conflict of opposites of a subject and an object of cognition, a thought and an action, an absoluteness and a relativity of truth. The author, in this paper, understands a sense as a value-orientation of individual and collective subjects-actors in an activity. So, they realise the desirable value as the object or purpose of that activity. A thought in a word sense is associated with an other beings. It means their determination by thought, spirit, reason, intuition. The sense of truth, in general, is in a valued-moral – conception, orientation and reception of some interests, needs, pleasures and desires of some subjects-actors.
