Truth is the law of freedom, falsehood the law of slavery and death. Truth is justice, fair play, adherence to the fundamental laws of ethics. Purity and truth are the twin factors that unfold and awaken the divinity that lies dormant within you and lead you to perfection. Truthfulness is the first pillar in the Temple of God-realization. Truth is the gateway to the Kingdom of God.
Truth is like a ladder.
It leads you to the Kingdom of Immortal Bliss. Truth is the queen of virtues. Truth is the supreme virtue. Truth constitutes the essence of the Vedas. Control over passions constitutes the essence of truth.
