Speaking the truth always is the most difficult thing to do in this world. At the same time, truth is also the most boring thing ever. I am used to telling lies, just to make the person sitting near me a bit more happy. Then to maintain that lie, a whole lot of interesting drama happens. In this regard, recently I had a conversation with him, which is worth while recording and sharing...!

| Control and manage human existence in this world? |
When you don't speak the truth, a negative emotion called guilt comes into existence, which is usually accompanied by another one called fear. . . ! To surpass these negatives in a easier way, my grand mother usually preaches me 'always speak the truth, truth is next to god!'. This is when he asked me the question 'What do you call as truth? what do you consider as truth in this existence?' According to me, Truth is what ever is real, happening, fact and numbers. I thought for a second, I could not explain truth in more realistic terms. We always need an example to explain things, don't we? but he asked me not to explain this using examples..!
Then, he told me, 'Truth is what you believe in. Not every thing in the world can be quantified, proved. Most of the things, we can only just believe. When you hear from people, read from books, see in action; we just believe things and imagine that it is real.' And according to me what ever is real is the truth, but then he tells 'its all that you have believed'. Looks like both of us are in the same plane, but after that he told. ' by practice you can start to believe any thing and then your truth becomes different from my truth.' This is when I got baffled, many new questions...
Have I believed in what he just told,? (is it the truth?)
If what he says is true, then is truth not a unanimous thing? (is it different depending on our beliefs?)
Do all these negative emotions like fear and guilt need to be associated with truth? (specially when its not unanimous)
Or are these emotions just used by almighty to control and manage human existence in this world? ( by just making you believe that you are lying... )
