It sustains character, preserves harmony, and leads to greatness.
Falsehood is poison to society.
It destroys trust, brings shame, and cuts off the good fruit of life.
Hypocrisy is words without virtue.
It is speech divorced from righteousness, a mask that cannot endure.
Truthfulness is the foundation of all virtues (Tirukkural 297).
Even falsehood that brings gain will bring endless disgrace (Tirukkural 294).
The false-hearted wear the form of men but lack true manhood (Tirukkural 281).
What is truth? Speech that harms none (Tirukkural 291).
Peace,
anas
