One should never tell a lie. But that does not mean that one is compelled to tell the truth. First of all one does not even know the truth. We don’t even know what is going on inside us, our motives remain carefully hidden inside covers of justification. In fact we live in a world of falsehood and consider it as truth. The first thing therefore should be to discover and know the Truth.
Then comes the question of sharing. Here the difficulty is even greater since human beings hear and read what they want to hear and read. They analyse the words and sentences but cannot see the intent nor glimpse the totality which serves as the grand backdrop of our life. It is best therefore to speak little, to the point, and for the rest remain silent and quiet instead of trying to explain. Meanwhile go along on the path you have chosen with firm steps sharing everything with the Mother.
Affectionately,
Alok Da
