The Weight of Truth

Once, six sages—moved by a divine urge for the welfare of all—journeyed deep into the heart of the Himalayas. In their eyes burned curiosity, in their hearts, penance; and in their souls, a single longing: the search for Truth.

Upon a snow-clad peak, they began their austere meditation. Time stood still. The winds fell silent. And at last... Truth revealed itself.

Its radiance was so intense that each sage saw it differently—one as compassion, another as justice, one as love, another as emptiness. Each described Truth, and astonishingly, each description was different. Yet none spoke falsehood.

Finally, the eldest sage broke his silence. He said: "Truth is one, but its reflection appears differently in every heart. When followed, it becomes nectar. But when imposed, it turns to poison—and becomes the seed of destruction."

He sent the others back to the mortal world with a single teaching: Spread Truth, but do not bind others with it.

The sages returned to Earth. They spoke of Truth, but over time, they forgot the elder’s warning. Their disciples, blinded by pride, began to wield Truth like a weapon. Temples burned. Wars of thought erupted. And in the end...

Truth itself became the cause of humanity’s ruin.

Truth is a flame—illuminating the world yet scorching the soul. To digest it, one must renounce ego and honor the truths others have seen.

For Truth is not singular—it manifests in many forms. This is the final truth—not to be imposed but embraced.
