Truth will never bite. It will only give us the wings we needed to fly out.
It relieves us of the pain that harms us, and the chains that bound us.
Its that beautiful sense of freedom we discover when we speak the truth out, such that we can soar up high with no regret and remorse.
Truth is an extension of the purity that lies naked within you. It never shows itself, for it is pure and untouched. Truth, if we shorten it leads to the existence of the word 'true'. Pure, in other words - true.
Truth is Existence. In itself. Its an experience, a journey. You might ask 'how'. I can only think of one sentence to bring forward the essence, understanding of it. When you tell a lie, it is said subconsciously. It is followed by another one in consciousness, and another. All these lies culminate to form what can be described as a 'journey' of lies. For once you embark on it, the strength to stop reduces over a period of time.
In a similar way, truth is a journey. A simple word is all it takes to realize the beauty of being true. Every day in our lives, we encounter a situaiton where we have the power to respond. And that decision of yours will make you aware of the reality, of yourself, of things you had not observed earlier.
The seed of truth is there in each one of us. It is present, to help you, guide you, motivate you.
Every journey has a beginning. The journey of truth starts within us, inside us.
If one science could explain the phenomenon of life, we would be learned people with nothing more to gain. Part of the differences that lie between us is accountable to the unknown areas of life. Secrets are revealed by successful men, mantras are sold like cupcakes in a candy shop; yet none of those seem to fit into your life with ease and simplicity: the way it did in that person's life.
Is it all in the hands of the person living his life? Or can the teachings of gurus be inculcated into our routine for attaining a level we only read in books or watched on television?
If I could have answered these questions, I would be reading my fan mail or globe trotting to give seminars, instead of sitting on the warm floor and writing this. So for anybody who comes across this, it is not a diary entry or a collection of gripping stories. These are my thoughts.
Also, it's an easy way to not pressurize myself with a deadline. Writing at one's own pace is charming - well, at least more charming than reading classics or doing work where interest is the last thing on my mind. This is my idea of being free. Free to express, free to think, free to be. Yes, I know we live in a democratic country; yet we rob ourselves of our own freedom.
Here is: To Freedom, To Life and... To Smiles!!! :)
Cheers!
