Self-truth bookspace
An act expressed from one’s innermost nature can be called self-truth. It can also be translated into Tamil as suya dharmam. One’s moods and actions are shaped by one’s personality and desires. It is sufficient to understand this on a simple, psychological level. Self-truth is that action which helps manifest one’s potential to its fullest. By engaging with it, conquering it, and transcending it, one can attain liberation. One may consider war, another’s business, another’s education, another’s profession, another’s service as their own self-truth.
There cannot be a person who does not know their self truth. One’s likes settle down on one’s self-truth from a very young age. It is not something that takes shape from the surroundings or community, or education. But the surroundings, community and education play a big part in it. A fingertip from within us gropes in many directions and points towards whatever it desires. At the centre of our self-truth, we concentrate our fullest energy. It never wavers in its direction. And so there are no losses.
The mango’s essence can be found in the tree’s root, leaf and flower. This essence, however, is ripe in the mango. One’s self-truth is not just in one’s thoughts but in one’s nature as well. One’s search for affection, love and salvation is all determined by that very nature. What is left when you remove the salty taste from salt? One is empty without the other.
The basis of the ‘Self truth bookspace’ is to bring to print and publicise even the smallest creation that can ignite anyone’s self-truth. From the timeless way of the truth to the truth borne by Gandhi… Those who extend as a witness to this history, we pray for this expression to be ensconced in the endless pages of the conscience like that of a peacock feather.
