साँच बराबर तप नहीं, झूठ बराबर पाप I जाके हिरदे साँच है, ताके हिरदे आप II
There are very few human beings who receive the truth, complete and staggering, by instant illumination. Most of them acquire it fragments by fragment, on a small scale, by successive developments, like a laboring mosaic. In other words the journey to truth is a gradual one. We do not typically receive the truth in one big epiphany. Instead, we learn it piece by piece, over time. This is because truth is complex and nuanced. It cannot be easily summarized or explained. Instead, we must come to it through our own experiences and reflections. The journey to truth is like the creation of a mosaic. A mosaic is a picture made up of many small pieces of glass, stone, or other materials. Each piece is individually small and insignificant. However, when the pieces are put together, they create a beautiful and complex image. In the same way, our understanding of the truth is made up of many small pieces. Each experience, each reflection, and each conversation adds a new piece to the mosaic. Over time, these pieces come together to form a more complete picture of the truth.
"Kabir says, the quest of truth is like Tapasya, a practical spiritual discipline that involves leading a life of self-restraint and purity. An endeavor to be honest about your fears and weaknesses and walk boldly towards them instead of cowering away from them. There is no quest bigger than truth, and no sin bigger than lie. God dwells in the heart of those who speak truth or follow the path of truth."
