TRUTH OF LIFE
The most important aspect is how to follow the principle of Truth in our daily life. Generally, it is believed that this implies only by speaking it. However, the concept of this is much broader than it seems. Fundamentally, it has twice connotations. First, it implies one must have to be truthful in each and every activity of life. Second, one must have to be truthful while expressing oneself. It is not be shown off, rather it must be reflected in our character.
