Guest guest Posted August 5, 2009 Report Share Posted August 5, 2009 60. Truth and Conduct Very few people can realise Truth and conduct themselves accordingly. Only those who realise the path of Truth will be able to follow it. When people develop anger or hatred against Truth, they keep themselves away from it. Regardless of their love or hatred, we should always love them. In fact, you are not different from others. Today they may appear to be different, but tomorrow they may come close to you. All are brothers and sisters! When a tree bears fruit, not all the fruits in a bunch ripen at the same time. Similarly, when a plant bears flowers, not all the flowers blossom at the same time. Some are in the process of blossoming, others are fully blossomed, yet a few remain as buds. Only the fully blossomed flower spreads its fragrance. Similarly, people too are in different stages of evolution ---some are at a blossoming stage and some others are like the fully blossomed flower, spreading their fragrance. We have to wait patiently they reach the 'fragrance stage'. We should all live like brothers and sisters with love and unity. Sathya or Truth is realized by the Sadhana (spiritual discipline) of the tongue. Dharma (righteous living) is realized by the Sadhana of the individual through right conduct in relation to the society. Man can attain Shanti (peace and equanimity) by discipline of the mind. Prema (love) is beyond thought, word and deed. To consider it as a manner of speech, an attitude of mind or as physical trait is to demean it. Love is God. God is Love. The Divine Love is not easily comprehensible. Love has no trace of selfishness; it is not led by ulterior motives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
