Guest guest Posted December 29, 2005 Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 "Follow the truth and Truth will set you free" Truth is the ultimate path which will give us self realization or god realization. All the paths will eventually lead us to the truth, the simplest yet difficult path to follow truth is self introsepction to findout how truthful we are towards ourself, others and God. At the end of everyday we have to look at the thoughts had and the deeds we did and look at how for truthful we are towards god, towards ourself and towards others. To do this we have to be very much open hearted, we are all humans and have drifted from the truth because of our desires, greed etc. It is perfectly alright as there is no human who can say he was perfect from the begining. All enlightened beings and evolved souls have started from the scratch, they purified their thoughts and actions and came close to truth, that way they have achieved enlightenment. Here are some of the humble ways I have thought will help us introspect and lead us in the path of enlightenment. 1. Many of us would have discoverd the knack of telling a lie and getting things done, when our conscience tells us we will justify our action by saying it is a small lie which will not harm anyonen. 2. We have to look at how many times we have taken a situation and used it for our convenience, when our conscience tells us we will justify our action by saying it is a small lie which will not harm anyone. 3. How many times have we expressed our gratitude to others when we benefit from them, we always hesitate to express our gratitude to others because in doing so we feel we will become inferior to others. 4. How many time we tried to use or misuse simple people to impress some learned/successful person, consciously or sub-consciously we tend to do this to get a nice impression from learned or successful people to gain some thing or hope to gain something in future. 5. How many times we have used knowledge to intimidate others and gain their attention, how many times we sheilded knowledge or manipulated it to gain things from others, we do this even when our conscious tells us that love and compassion are more important than knowledge. When we do the introspection like above, our conscience will tell us what to do, instead of supressing our conscience we have to listen to it and let go of all these diversions from truth, then we will realise the true self or higher self with in us. The higher-self within is pure divine white light like the real god and which is truth, when we drift from the truth we are only reducing its power, by manipulating the truth we may gain a few things but by remaining truthful there is no limits to our acheivement, spiritually and materially because god loves the ones who are truthful and he will bless them with whatever they want. When we reamin trughful we become god as we are extension of god, we will have tremendous creative and healing powers.
