Dharma says 'Satyam vada' and 'Dharmam chara': Speak the truth and practise righteousness. Sathyannasti paro dharmah: there is no better stabilising factor in society, no more support for individual progress than Satya, Truth. Hiding the truth or perverting it or denying it or defacing it are all signs of cowardice; no bold person will stoop to cover the face of Truth. Besides, you must know that the Vedic injunction is: “Dharmam chara - Practise Dharma." It is not enough if you learn about it; you must act it, fill every moment with word, deed and thought that reflect your awareness of Dharma. That type of living is the hallmark of what is called seelam (character) in statements such as “Seelam param bhushanam - Character is the most precious jewel." You must examine every moment of your waking time to check if you are observing the precepts of Dharma or straying away!
