Everyday, we experience living on many levels of our being. Our energy lifts up and drops down. Our awareness brightens and dims. Most people consider these experiences their lot in life!

Happy New Year: What is Truth?

Friday, January 1st, 2010

Happy New Year! We thought you might find inspiration for 2010 with this poem. Click here for a printable version (pdf).


What is Truth?
by Swami Kriyananda

Truth is all-embracing.

Truth knows no barriers;
it is, therefore, always kind.

Truth fosters harmony, never disharmony;
unity, never disunity;
universal respect, never judgment or intolerance.

Truth is ever beneficial;
its rays heal, though they cauterize our imperfections.

Be wary of statements made in the name of truth, if they lack charity.

View skeptically such statements if they are self-serving.

Should anyone, moreover, claim unique possession of a truth,
turn apart, and gaze up into the vast heavens:

For truth is expansive;
its native land is Infinity.

Truth inspires joy in our souls
even if we, in our human littleness, fear its liberating rays.
