Integrity

Description

Integrity (Or Sampoorti) has two components. The first part is – whatever word you give to you, you either have to honor it or complete it by withdrawing it. Secondly – whatever word you give to others, you either have to honor it or complete it by withdrawing it. For example, if you have told somebody that you will give them one million rupees, you have to honor your words even if feel you have to give up your life for it! However, if for some reason you realize that even if you give up your life you will not be able to give that person one million rupees, at least complete it by telling them, ‘I won’t be able to fulfill my word; I am completing it.’

In the same way, every thought you give to you is a word you give to you. If you have told yourself, ‘I will buy a car for myself, lots of clothes, and a big house’, remember that it is a promise you have given to yourself! You have to honor it even by giving your life. If you think you can’t honor it, then you have to complete with yourself. You have to do completion even with yourself.

So bring straightforwardness into any dealing – with yourself, with others, with the world, with God, with the Guru. Be straight and keep your word with integrity.

Your life is built on the words you give to you and to others. That has to be without any unconsciousness, unawareness. Your manana – internalizing has to be continuously with awareness. Listen, shravana has to be with awareness. Manana – internalizing means the words you give to you and to others, the words you talk to you and others. The internalizing has to be with awareness with full consciousness. When you use the words with consciousness, you will naturally have less words... you will be aware that is forming the basic infrastructure of your life. The structure of your life is nothing but the words you give to you and to others. I tell you, the strength of your life is based on the words you give to you and to others. If it is conscious, your life will be conscious. If it is unconscious, your life will be unconscious. Integrity forms the basis for your life.
