On Truth!




On Truth!

Some said it is fine to ignore as the situation would heal itself and others said ‘Truth’ can’t be brushed aside to heal itself. It has to be faced and only then we can outgrow the fear that comes with the Truth and then we also can attend to it with honesty. Both are right but at two difference situations. Let’s see few of such situation to understand this better.

I give below few instances for you to go through and say when in the following situations it’s ok to ignore ‘the Truth’ and when it is not.  When if ignored, the situation doesn’t heal itself and when it heals itself if ignored!

1 A: one is cutting vegetables and gets a small cut – not too deep just a small one – hardly few drops of blood oozes out.

1 B: one has a major accident and couple of broken bones

2 A: one looses Rs.100/- and is in immense pain and crying

2 B: one has a business loss of say couple of crores.

3 A: one has a break-up, divorce, loss of a dear one to death

3 B: one’s partner /kid  is a repeated offender – say stealing, gambling, losing in business again and again et so.

4 A: one has a bruise

4 B: one has arthritis / acutely anemic / cancer

5 A: one lies to throw ‘surprise party’

5 B: one lies for no reason and is a regular compulsive liar

6 A: friend / colleague /boss / relative taunts /teases / insults

6 B: one gets hospitalized or requires first-aid for regular physical and mental abuse

7 A: qualities or feelings like boredom, being relaxed etc

7 B: feelings of anger, hatred, jealousy, irresponsibility etc

8 A: someone lies about where they have been to avoid confrontation

8 B: someone lies with the intention to cheat

Most common issues and situations have been given to you to decide where it is fine to ignore and still it would work itself out and in which of cases it is must to confront and face it to heal it?

Most As except 3A can be ignored. All Bs need to be healed. When I commented that we need to ignore a few things, I meant smaller issues like this where we are sure that time will heal the situation. Many times when we worry about minor things and focus on healing them, we lose the opportunity to heal the root cause.

I thought over the given instances. In some cases where I feel that the issue can be ignored, as a simple daily shielding would work and in a couple of such cases (where it can be ignored) one needs healing if there are signs of situations turning worse. All the others need self-introspection plus healing. Please see below my analysis :
1. a. Can be ignored
b. Needs healing until physically healed. If it repeats, then there is some introspection required.
2. a. Can be ignored.
b. Needs introspection and healing
3. a. Needs healing of emotions. People usually grow out of it in a matter of days. Needs further healing if the emotions of the person stays unresolved
b. This one needs introspection and healing.
4. a. Can be ignored
b. Needs facing inner fears and healing
5. a. No need to heal as there is nothing there to heal. The person eventually said the truth when the party starts
b. Needs healing.
6. a. No need to heal, if one can easily avoid such people. Simple daily shielding should work
b. Needs healing
7. a. No need to heal. Just need to find something to engage self
b. Needs healing
8. a. Depends. In most cases it can be ignored
b. Needs healing

Thank You!
