Commitment to truth

Self knowledge is the single cure for all of life's ills.

To realize that you are consciousness and consciousness alone exists and that the universe is consciousness dispels all sorrow instantly.

In order to realize this truth, the mind must first be stilled.

It is only the still mind that realizes truth.

To still the mind, give up the craving for pleasure and the intention to deceive others.

The mind whose major interest is deception and manipulation is a tortured mind.

Be true. Commit only to truth above all else.

Avoid deceiving even a single soul. And above all, avoid self deception.

It is only the desire to deceive that bounds you. Words are the tools of deception.

Use them wisely. It is not an easy skill to wield words wisely. Very few can do it.

Truth Is. Words and deception cannot affect truth. Only the mind of the deceiver is darkened.

Decisively commit to truth alone.

In this single commitment to truth above all else lies the true path to sanity.

Truth cleans the mind. Purifies it completely. A pure mind clearly perceives truth.

Forces of darkness and subconscious tendencies of deception slowly weaken. Even if it destroys your life, commit only to truth. In every single moment and every single interaction with another.

There is no task more urgent than this. Centuries of deception have considerably darkened the mind. Turn on the light of truth and the darkness instantly vanishes.

Refrain from the temptation to deceive. Our intentions are rarely benevolent. However, if we commit to truth rather than our dark intentions, transformation occurs.

Philosophy is nothing but absolute commitment to truth.
