Quote of the day - Nov 14th

Whenever one speaks, one must remember to speak the truth, and only the truth! If one realises that the truth will hurt, then one begins to understand life better and will speak less for fear of causing hurt to others.
But truths that can hurt are of many kinds. Religious truths that lead to wisdom must be spoken. Truths that cause others to realise and awaken should be spoken. Truths that must be conveyed for the benefit of others should be spoken. But truths that do not concern oneself are best left unspoken!
The beauty of life is lost when one begins to live in a world of lies. Lies delude the mind and cause great suffering to oneself and to others and become manifestations of the ignorant mind, leaving behind bitter experiences!
