शब्द बिचारे पथ चलै, ज्ञान गली दे पाँव I क्या रमता क्या बैठता, क्या गृह कँदला छाँव II
Pursuit of Knowledge must lead to truthful living. Therefore, unless Knowledge changes one’s life in the direction of Truth (‘Sat‘-Reality) — man’s essential state — it’s useless. One can spend all his life hearing about Truth; reading loads of books about Truth; contemplating day and night on Truth; teaching or preaching Truth; writing volumes about Truth; but none of these will help Living in harmony with the Ultimate Truth (Realization of the Divine Presence within) unless one lives a truthful life in the Here and Now. Truth is higher than everything, but higher still is truthful living. To live truthfully simply means to live with honesty — honesty in speech, actions, and intentions with the outside world of objects, sphere of emotions, and the realm of thoughts. Living truthfully means living righteously. This is true religion. Truth never fails or gets shaken. That which shakes is just some small belief at a very superficial level. It is your own expectations and desires which shake you. The Path to Truth awakens your soul to its true purpose. It provides an awareness and understanding of the ancient teachings of the ages to show how these teachings are applicable in today's world. You will learn how to look at your life beyond the five senses, and discover that you are more than flesh and blood; you are a spiritual being having a human experience.
"Kabir says, walking the path of Truth, one never goes astray. And therefore no matter where one dwells, amidst people or lives like a hermit, the path of truth never fails. Truth alone will endure, all the rest will be swept away before the tide of time. A man of faith will remain steadfast to truth, even-though the whole world might appear to be enveloped in falsehood."
