  2. It is just like an elephant’s taking a bath. As soon as it comes out of the water, it throws sand on itself. It is only by the mercy of a great saint that one can give up sinning.
    Thank you maharaja

  7. Maharaj is always inspiring us to follow the topmost thing, to commit sin and then repent is the low level but to mould our life in such a way not to commit any sin is the highest.

  8. If we just go on committing sins and confessing we may get into the cycle of committing sins and confessing. The reason could be to come out of the guilt or to lighten the burdened heart. This is not real honesty tells Radhanath Swami. Real honesty is to try living a life free of sins.

  9. Really amazing definition of Honesty by HH Radhanath Swami maharaj……however it is very difficult for me to follow

  11. Radhanath Swami Maharaj very nicely points out that the confession of sin is not the honesty, but to try to avoid the sins is the real honesty. Very inspiring definition. thank you

  31. Thanks to Radhanath Swami Maharaj for this beautiful definition of honesty.

  32. Association with a saintly person is more valuable than the wealth of this entire world and this statement of Maharaj proves this point.

  33. Radhanath Swami Maharaja’s every statment is pregnant with deep meaning.. We are very fortunate to have his vani association. We can utilize this fully and try to become a humble servant of Vaisnavas

    I loved reading your Journey Home Book, after reading a review on http://www.radhanath.com

  53. Our conception of Honesty maximum goes to the extent of confessing and asking for forgiveness….but this is really amazing….trying to live a life without sin….!!

  54. Wow. Such a powerful insight. It’s speciality of Radhanath Maharaj that he always goes deeper into the actual facts. He is not superficial.

  60. Your comment The words of Radhanath swami really pierces through what it actually mean. Reviewing our life with such higher values which Radhanath swami is giving will make us perfect.

  61. Thank you dear Radhanath Swami Maharaj for sharing with us such a wonderful point.

  62. To do this I require the strength of blessings from a genuine devotee like You.

  63. I must confess I’m not upto that standard yet. I end up regretting for my sins and doing them again, like an elephant taking a bath and pouring mud over itself. I pray for strength to fight my conditionings.

  64. Perfect defination of Honesty. Most of the time we make mistakes and then repent, Instead the best is to free ourself from sins.Difficult but not impossible.

  66. There is always an instruction in Maharaj’s quote for the sincere devotee. We need to follow the instruction. Jai Maharaj.

  68. Thank you so much Radhanath Swami. You dispel the various illusions and misconceptions that a living entity comes under, through the torchlight of transcendental knowledge explained in bonafide scriptures.

  71. Thank you for telling us the fine difference between hypocrisy & true honesty

  72. Radhanath Swami Maharaj quote of real honesty is really very meaningful since every time committing sins and then confessing is of no value unless we determine ourselves to not commit/repeat it again. Thank you Maharaj!!

  73. Radhanath Swami is making a point that if we are really honest then we won;t live a life of a hypocrite who confesses after committing sins all the time. there is a proverb sorry doesn;t make a dead man alive.

  74. hardcore truth, better to take treatment from the root cause rather than from external improvements and developments, better be honest not to do any sin than to repent, this particular quote of radhanath swami fits exatly on my attitude hence it is to me to apply in my life, thank you maharaj,

  77. Practically the whole world is sinning , especially killing innocent creatures & still not repenting for its activities.Yet they are under the illusion that they will be happy , one day.If they want to be happy they should take inspiration from persons like Radhanath Swami.

  78. Thank you so mush Maharaj for enlightening us with this quote, I will try to implement this quote in my life with your belssings

    Your humble Servent

  79. I wish one day I can honestly say that I am failing in my attempts to live a sinless life.

  80. We should all try to endeavour to be as honest as Radhanath Swami because he is indeed the ideal person to emulate. A real role model.

  81. Until and unless we are not honest we will not be able to get mercy of God. And Radhanath Maharaj is helping all of us by these thought provoking quote and lecture. Today’s society need him a lot.

  82. Honesty makes a man free from sinning. A honesty person can also commit mistake due to ignorance. Radhanath Swami makes everyone free from ignorance, in turn he is ferr form sinning. He becomes honest. Its very important to have guidance from Radhanath swami.

  83. All Glories to H.H.Radhanath Swami Maharaj

    Our propensities to commit evil is tested time and again, but as stated above , we should be firm on our paths of bhakti and resist any temptations that may come our way

    Hare Krishna

  84. Nice instruction to contmplate and try to imbibe in our day to day life. Thank you Maharaj. Its application all about.

  86. Honesty is rarely seen in today’s society – real honesty that is. It requires sacrifice in the form of following spiritual injunctions – very challenging indeed in today’s day and age – Only hope lies in having the right association and chanting the HOLY NAMES.

  87. Radhanath Swami makes it clear that the effort of actually preventing a sin is real honesty. This requires a sea-change in life style and who we associate with.

  89. Such a simple but important point. We many times do this without even realizing it. We may just say SORRY but Not FEEL sorry and thats why keep repeating it.

  90. Radhanath Swami has clearly set the bench mark. We honestly admit our mistakes and think we are exculpated of our responsibility but Radhanath Swami has emphasized to be extra careful to not commit sins as being truly honest. Remarkable statement!
