What is truthfulness ? According to the Hindu scriptures it is " the speaking of words which are entirely free from harmful effects."
What is your take ?
Everything I say can be fully substantiated by my own opinion.
With all due respect to the scriptures, sometimes the truth hurts.
Truthfulness, to me, is speaking words devoid of deception and bias. Moral Honesty is being concerned whether speaking the truth will have harmful effects.
