Is it so hard

To tell the truth?

Modern PR people would say no as they deal in lies all day long and so feel that the truth is something they create to fit any given situation

In fact they would not know truth if it came and sat on their heads

So leaving aside modern cynicism and casual corruption of the truth

Truth at our level of consciousness is relative

Absolute truth is something we cannot approach at our level of consciousness

Tough but there it is

So relative truth is still pretty useful

Why?

Because amongst other things it allows us to function more comfortably

If you are always wondering about the truth of things you place stress on yourself

This over time will lead to health breakdown or other serious problems

To live with the truth of things requires that you know the truth about yourself otherwise you have no platform to work from

Knowing the truth about yourself needs an understanding of right and wrong

Morals and ethics

Simply stated the Christian ten commandments or the Buddhist eight precepts are fine and easy to understand

Both are taken from the teachings of the perennial or ancient wisdom

The perennial wisdom being the basis of all major religions and teachings

Once these are your chosen base point then truth is easier to find in any given situation

When you chose to live in truth it takes away one source of stress in life

A major one at that

Over the course of a lifetime truth will aid your journey through life

Not so easy as it requires courage and discipline

So yes maybe it is so hard, but the alternative is harder

Believe us it's the truth!
