Investigate, Discuss, Asses, Change.

Amongst all the information that we are immersed in now days, what is the truth ? We have a tendency to pay lip service to quotes by the great masters, as if they will somehow change the course of our destiny. It is only when we embody honesty within ourselves that change can be realised and our world begins to heal. What do you think?

Perhaps they were holding up a signboard to the direction we should go.

Perhaps now is a time to embody the message brought to us.

Perhaps this is the moment to become the masters of our own destiny.

Perhaps now is a time to know the truth.

Perhaps now is a time to be set free.

Here are a few insightful quotes on truth to whet the appetite:

Conquer the angry one by not getting angry; conquer the wicked by goodness; conquer the stingy by generosity, and the liar by speaking the truth. Three things cannot be long hidden: the sun, the moon, and the truth – Buddha

An error does not become truth by reason of multiplied propagation, nor does truth become error because nobody sees it Mahatma Gandhi

Whoever is careless with the truth even in small matters cannot be trusted with important matters – Albert Einstein

The truth is not always beautiful, nor beautiful words the truth Lao Tzu

Truth is a deep kindness that teaches us to be content in our everyday life and share with the people the same happiness Khalil Gibran

No single person, nobody of opinion, no political doctrine, no religious doctrine can claim a monopoly on truth – Nelson Mandela

Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free – Jesus Christ
