# Running from yourself

When you look into the pattern of spontaneous lying, you will see that the reasons why you lie are not always very big. Many times, you lie just to avoid some uncomfortable situations, conversations or people. It is usually only to avoid some situation which you know will force you to face the truth about yourself.

Instead of changing the reason why such a situation occurred, you think you can escape it with a lie. This is the basic thread of dishonesty running in your life.

And the biggest problem is that society conditions you to believe that this is okay. You start believing that it is a smart way to get yourself out of uncomfortable situations.

A small story:

A pickpocket was pronounced guilty in court and sentenced to a jail term of 8 months with an option of paying a fine of $200.

His defence lawyer, knowing that his client could not pay the fine, pleaded with the judge - 'Your Honor, my client can afford only $50, but if you allow him a few minutes in the crowd...'

Spontaneous lying is the pattern that never allows any transformation in you. It stops your transformation at the very first step.

Listen: in any zone of your life where you lie spontaneously, you miss Life in that zone! Spontaneous lying takes away Life from you.

For example, if you carry this pattern into your relationships, it just destroys your relationships.

If you have this pattern with your wife, she will never be able to add what she is supposed to add to your life. You may expect her to add love and romance to your life, but as long as you carry this pattern, she will never be able to add that to your life. In the same way, even though you want your husband to add security to your life, you will never be able to feel secure with him as long as you carry this pattern.

If you have the pattern of spontaneous lying with your mother, you will miss everything that can be added to your life by your mother's presence. And spontaneous lying is the unfortunate and most silly pattern with which you simply stop the Master's grace from showering on you.

Spontaneous lying is a complicated pattern, where you hide your inauthenticity with your non-integrity! Lying is a direct act of non-integrity. When you use lying to hide your mistake, you are using non-integrity to support your inauthenticity.

Since spontaneous lying is an inauthenticity that arises out of non-integrity, you have to first work on restoring your integrity. Integrity happens with conscious thinking. If your thinking is conscious the whole day, it will continuously align with the commitments you make.

When you are not integrated within yourself, that is when you need to defend yourself through spontaneous lying. If you are not complete with the idea you carry about you, you go on lying spontaneously. Spontaneous lying carries the smell of your non-integrity.

Spontaneous lying is the biggest hurdle in your transformation. Every time you utter a lie, you are moving against the very flow of your life that can take you to the Ultimate. Spontaneous lying is your 'armor' that does not never allow even the Master's energy to work on you. Your spontaneous lying pattern stops me from giving any blessing to you.

Break this pattern of spontaneous lying! It is like the tough skin of the seed which does not allow the seed to become a tree. Only when the seed is ready to break out of its skin and expand its identity, it can become a tree!

Getting it?

So, will you do it?

A small story:

There were once two naughty brothers who were uncontrollable and troubled everyone in their village. The whole village decided that they were tired of the brothers and won't be able to handle the hell created by them anymore. The villagers went and complained to their parents. The parents, not knowing what to do, went to the village priest. The priest decided to take the responsibility and said, ‘Don't worry, I will reform them.’

So the priest first called the younger brother and started talking to him. He asked, ‘My son, have you seen God?’

The child started crying and ran away as fast as he could. He found his brother and told him that they should quickly hide themselves. So both of them ran away and hid themselves in a hut outside the village.

The younger brother said to the older one, ‘We are really in trouble!’

The older brother asked, ‘Why?’

The younger brother replied, ‘We made a big mistake by stealing money and food from the houses in our village! Now GOD is missing, and the priest was asking me where He is!’
