Man is Sathyam, Shivam and Sundharam (Truth, Goodness and Beauty). That is why he is drawn by the true, the beautiful and the good. He hates being labeled a liar or an ugly person or a bad character! Man has to go out of his way, take special pains, to tread the path of falsehood; it is more difficult for him to sustain a lie than support the truth. So, man is turning back on his destiny when he revels in falsehood, ugliness and wickedness...Man is bound to God, by the same destiny. He can get sound and sweet sleep only in the lap of God. Separated from Him, he can only wail.
- Divine Discourse, March 1st, 1968.
