There is a universal truth and humans are equipped to experience it. EXPERIENCE it. It is not discovered/figured out with the mind. Once experienced, mind can be used as a tool instead of us being used by it. These questions are a good start. Being open and inquiring will allow one to experience and know truth.

The mind has always been the most fascinating thing about humans. Until modern times, most knowledge-seeking revolved around the workings of the mind!

A big mistake in understanding knowledge is the standard by which we set it. The mystic's standard is omniscience, even to the extent of inventing a universe unknowable (note the corruption of Kant). And therefore concluding knowledge is impossible to man.
One must reject omniscience but not knowledge. And one must validate the sense organs, not invalidate them. To know the entity of a species by its nature, and attribute knowledge according to the entity that it is, is moral.
The sense organs man possesses give him all the data he needs and his mind integrates that data to form concepts. If he is wrong is some manner, do not blame his senses for the wrong conclusions he might arrive at. If he was wrong by way of an outcome, then credit him for knowing he was wrong. That is knowledge right there. And give him the freedom to rethink.
That is the process that he may form certainty. He is not an all knowing God, nor is there an all knowing God.
Suggesting "we" cannot know anything for sure is a philosophical corruption from the outset, and any that hold such a view have no moral right to speak for that is an abomination by their own standard.
Any attempt to communicate wholly depends on one's certainty that the coded characters form sentences and/or sounds that can be understood in the first place. If one says "I disagree" then one is already claiming knowledge with certainty.

The mind can be a limiting experience or an ever expanding universe depends on your perception
