The best of all true things
is a true heart.
Without truth no happiness,
though you try
a million tricks.

- Kabir, a medieval poet-saint of India

If you want the truth,
I’ll tell you the truth:
Listen to the secret sound,
the real sound,
which is inside you.

Kabir, 1440-1518
Indian Poet and Mystic

Crookedness and truth (straightness) are in their nature opposite and cannot dwell together more than frost and fire; for one who has become religious, and practices the way of straight behavior, a false and crooked way of speech is not becoming.
