Honesty is not only a light on the inner path, it is also one of the most effective means for relief of the suffering which afflicts allβman or woman, rich or poor, great or small. Relief from all kinds of suffering is within ourselves if, in all circumstances and in every walk of life, we try to think honestly, act honestly, and live honestly.
Infinite honesty is one of the aspects of God, and therefore the least hypocrisy in ourselves keeps us aloof from God.
