Truth Alone Prevails.

Always speak the truth, in a pleasant tone and with good of other in mind. One who lies, his words fall flat and his heart beat increases. One who speaks the truth and that too in a sweet manner, his courage increases? Those who, say that one cannot run a business without telling lies, are simply ignorant about the power of truth.
A boy was running a stall in a vegetable marker. Another boy had a similar stall next to his. One afternoon customer picker up a big water nelson from the first boy’s stall and asked him, Is this melon good?’
The boy replied sir the good once have abreast been sold. This on e looks good but it is rotten and tasteless,’
Before moving to the next stall the man said, you are honest but your goods will snot be sold in this way.’
The bony answered; I shall sell by telling the truth. I don’t mind if my sales increase or decrease.”
The man went over to the adjacent stall and asked, ‘Brother is this cucumber fresh?
The boy said, yes sir it is fresh. The man paid for the cucumber and retuned home. After he had left, the second boy told the first one, you are foolish you should not like that for your goods I sold my cucumber whish three days old for fresh. Now you will have to throw away your water melon”
Hearing this, the first boy said, I don’t care if it is not sold, but I will never tell a lie. I experience great peace by speaking the truth.”
When the man cut the cancer, he found that it was rotten. He thought, the cucumber vendor has cheated me. From the next day onwards he started buying everything form the watermelon vendor who a was honest. He never bought anything from the boy who sold cucumbers. Gradually, the boy came to be Know throughout the city for his honesty and he began to get many customers. Finally, he becomes a big businessman but the other boy remained poor as ever.
A liar lises his value, reliability and influence. We should conduct on such a manner as would gain the trust of not only our own people but other as well. One becomes a successful only when he wins the trust of his customers.
Truth alone is God. While falsehood and deceit personify the sateen. One with an inclination for truth is inclined to God, and one who has inclination for deceit is inclined to trouble. Therefore, abstain from deceit and forgery for ever and take recourse to truth alone.

Study the scriptures facilitating Self enquiry like Vicar Chandroday, Vichar sager and shri Yoga Vasishtha Maharamayana’. Or ekes read what the seers, who have trellised God, said about Him and the nature of the Real Self that has been compiled in the booklet Marijuana south published by the ashram. Imbibe those thought and be calm. This is the easiest and the best way to self enquiry.
