Both Aarti and Paridhi got sidetracked in telling the truth due to differing reasons. The thing is though, Aarti did what we do everyday:


Exhibit A

As a parent, a mother or father will say "don't lie because it's wrong" and yet, said parents can be found smiling with uncle so and so, and aunty so and so telling "white" lies to preserve that persons feelings when everyone involved knows that it is the opposite of whatever they've spoken.

Exhibit B

When you as an individual see a friend, sibling, or child behaving in a self- destructive manner or foolish manner and you make all attempts to accost the person and change the direction of the path, while your own path is not so sunshiny golden. You're doing this out of deep love for the person, but yet cannot get yourself to take your own advice.

Exhibit C

Parent/Guardian who has been stealing all of his/her life advising child not to do so because they see the consequences, but due to their own "majbhoori"(hungry, child, bills to pay...etc), are unable to stop doing so himself/herself.


Judging is easy until you put yourself in that persons shoes.😊


Please note that I am not advocating lying, simply putting things into perspective regarding Aarti's "lecture".😊


Wow you've precisely put down all the perspectives but at the same time won't it backfire if one knows that you are lying and yet advising not to lie and to tell the truth etc? I know at times we tell ppl not to do this/ tell that but we do it ourselves but those are just little things. This is a major issue so can we still treat it and view it the same??
