If you follow Truth right from this very day, you will certainly become an ideal to the entire country. What is Truth? God's word is Truth. Hence, when you speak and act with the feeling Sarva Karma Bhagavad Preetyartham (All actions are meant only to please God), everything will become Truth. Every thought and feeling emanating from you is a reflection of your inner truth. Unfortunately it gets converted into falsehood by the improper use of the tongue. The tongue is one of the five senses. The senses are the cause of changes in us; they are responsible for the sin or merit we earn. Himsa (violence) is not just limited to harming or hurting others; in fact acting contrary to one's words is also violence. Remember this always: There can be no greater practice of Non-violence than using our tongue in a sacred manner.
