THE REALM OF TRUTH

A very insignificant incident triggered my train of thoughts and I traversed into the realms of truth. There I witnessed picturesque maze, treacherous gorge and a confused myself. The more I tried to understand the more I felt falling into the chasm. Perhaps truth is neither as simple as it appears to be nor it is a virtue without a consequence.

Yet we seek it with all our might but when the bare truth stands and stares right into our face we immediately disown it. What makes it so difficult to embrace it?  Why do we counter it with several logical reasoning which subconsciously we know we are doing only to delude ourselves?

Like Rotation and Revolution are the two absolute dignified and peaceful truths that we all live each day there are numerable minute and colossal truths that cross our path.  Each truth may not validate us but we need to understand that truth is multifaceted.  If each one of us could accommodate truth and I must add that it takes immense courage to speak truth and it takes titanic strength to just lend an ear; living in real world which is so overshadowed by reel world would become easy. Our generation can find some peace and the coming generation will have lesser issues to tackle.

Let us not limit ourselves and get trapped in our fragments of belief, let us look out of the window of our narrow walls and reach out to the other side of the truth. For this would ensure more productive society more tolerant society and more happy society. Living in denial is catastrophic; we must embrace truth in all its shades and layers.

What is truth? Perhaps truth is a kind word spoken at the time of distress, perhaps truth is an experience that has a lesson to impart. Perhaps truth is just a moment which is destined to just pass by, perhaps truth is a reflection of our inclination, perhaps truth is just a feeling, perhaps truth is a healing balm or perhaps truth is a dagger.

No matter how you define truth, it is empowering, it is multifaceted and it requires us to be open minded and strong  for the weak can neither make an alliance with it nor can feel its subtle beauty.
