THE ULTIMATE TRUTH

Swami Sivananda

There cannot be two ultimate truths. Truth is one, expressed variously. Truth has different aspects to suit different situations of life and differences in temperament. Ultimately truth is beyond time and space. It is indivisible, all-embracing. Relative truth is adaptable to varying circumstances. But all relative truths are dependent on the Truth ultimate. When a relative truth negates the fundamental principle of truth, it is no loanger a truth. Truth is that knowledge which is never contradicted. Truth does not change. That is the criterion of ultimate truth. Application of truth involves right discernment. When truth is misapplied, it ceases to be a truth. Truth cannot bring harm to anyone. It is full of love and bliss. Truth is Existence-Knowledge-Bliss Absolute.


All works are sacred. There is no menial work from the highest view-point, from the view-point of the Absolute, from the view-point of Karma Yoga.
