Integrity in the words you utter to yourself and to others is Sathya. Live by the Truth, speaking the facts is just one dimension of truth, real Satya is aligning our thoughts, speech and action to the truth. The moment you decide to that you are going to express your thoughts and feelings without editing them, you are forced to purify your very thinking!
The continuous practice of living by the truth can have a powerful impact on your subconscious. You are released from the burden of pretension and duplicity that have become part of our daily living. Satya gives you the unimaginable freedom to really be yourself. Being established in truth is enlightenment, one needs to align his/her beliefs to his/her words. You can either only talk about what you know as you or truly believe in what you tell to others as you. The second one believe the words you utter to others is harder than it seems, because people might believe but your mind will say “ Who do think you’re trying to fool, you can say whatever you want to people but not to me, I know who you are” and then it’s over you fall into self-doubt.
Lao Tzu says “ If you are established in truth there is no need for spiritual practice.”
But, there is a tricky part about teaching Satya (truth), it can be received only by someone who is not bound to the one who speaks the truth, because in order to fully understand the truth one must have the opportunity of doubting, questioning or leaving, that is why the purest truth can only be transmitted in a situation where there is no attachment between the speaker and the listener.
