One must speak truth since truth is the first principle for mankind .But one should not speak unpleasantly even though the matter may be truth. In this regards, old Indian writings emphasize too much. Shree Adi Shankaracharya always encouraged questioning the methods and systems involved in the Indian rituals. He travelled throughout India participating in shastrartha vagvada charchas, meaning hot debates, arguments like court trials, in the presence of the then rulers of the land.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
One of the creations of Shree Adi Shankaracharya (read more here<\/a><\/em>) is a famous book named Sharada Tilakam. It deals with the various worshipping methods to get rid of one\u2019s accumulated sins, so that in later periods, one may not suffer due to the past sin burdens. Maintenance of truthfulness in life is the first obligation and foremost desired human quality to have full benefits of life and achieve higher levels of importance in society. His Sanskrit arguments of verses termed as Advaitha principle. His strong quotation was from the Bhagavadgeetha:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This part of Sanskrit verse means, it is the ultimate truth of life that our life soul is a part of the universal soul. When it gets enlightened, the person would become God. But he must regard truth as the unavoidable principle of life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mythology also advocates in India that everything is to be tested and proved before reaching the inference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Vasishta, the holy sage, said in the meeting of Devendra that, Satya Harischandra is the king who always leads truthful life. But Vishwamitra, the other sage desired to test and prove it before declaring him as fully honest and an ardent follower of truth. Various plots were created by the sage Vishwamitra against Satya Harischandra and his family members to trap him, but found him to be genuinely truthful and finally approved him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Satya Harischandra lived under the lineage of Sri Rama at Ayodhya. It is better to read his story in the month of Karkataka as a part of Ramayana series and it would be available in this site. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
