Sincerity, for change

For the physically weak, vitamins are of high value as they take care of deficiencies and provide essential nutrients. But only talk of vitamins, without taking the required one physically, is of no help.

The same can be said of values. People talk about values for two reasons – one is because it has become fashionable and the other is because we use different masks in order to get acceptance, commendation and praise. However, the mask does not represent our real selves. So, even though a person speaks of values, he may, in reality, not practise them. In that case, it would be hypocrisy.

Hence, when people discover that men in power and high position talk of values but do not practice them, they get disillusioned.

Sincerity then becomes the promoter of values and prepares our mind to imbibe other values too. It wins the hearts of others and enables a person to be nearer to the Supreme Being.
