Yes speaking truth in all situations is not easy without seeing peoples feeling being hurt by what is been said.

For example we just had to spend 2 days with people who live life in a totally different way that we do. They talk and talk to spend time with you.

Moments of silence are experienced as a threat, something that need to be avoided at all costs. Listening with interest is after a few hours very difficult work especially when you know that we are used to being in silent most of the day, meaning not talking outwardly, of course mind is not silent during all day,

still having to listen to each detail of a visit to a shop and I mean each detail from which shoes we on their feet, to the number of bikes parked outside the shop, to the amount of people standing in line, including what they were wearing. All the talk was about things like that. Nothing else!

Very interesting to observe, but do we tell them in that moment the truth? that what they are talking about is of no importance to us? what does it say about them? Nothing really does it now. It say's something about me, that I judge this to be interesting, and not that subject. It say's something about me that I judge them to be talking about a lot of rubbish.

What does it say about me, it shows me that I am totally in dual mind. So I let go the moment I become aware of not being interested in whatever they have to say. I do not speak out loud what I think or feel because that has nothing to do with the truth.

If I would say that they are boring my brains out, it is not a truth, it is a jugement. If I would say, I am judging you because I think I know better things to talk about, well what I think are better things to talk about, I am totally wrong in doing so, then yes that would be the truth.

Still would that help them? No it would hurt them without giving them anything, not that we can give another anything, but that is another matter. So truth you are talking about is truth from self, from inner being, not from judgemental mind, like remarks as: I like this, you do this wrong, I can do that better then you, you do not know what you are talkign about. You, you, you, instead of taking myself as an example. I have experienced this within myself, or I have come to see this. etc

Speaking truth is also a very good way of letting go of attachments. Attachment of identity, no longer affraid to be seen as a good person only, as a pretty woman or man, a spiritual, wise, sweet, attractive,,....etc.

When we speak truth focus should closely stay on self because when we come to know self we will know the other in the same moment. Truth will start flowing on its own accord.

And as someone earlier said today, Buddha had a great answer when some disiple asked: How come you answered the same question in many different ways?

What is the right answer or remark in one moment is a totally wrong answer in the next to another person. That does not mean that Buddha was lying in any form or shape. Buddha knew self, realized self, and by that he knew straight away were each individual before him stood within his development within mind.

So speaking truth is nothing else then speaking from inner wisdom. Which means that many people will become a lot more quite....hahahahaha
