Any situations for fears, such as fear of punishment,
fear of losing face,… especially fear of death.
We will tell the truth only when we gain true
knowledge to detach ourself from this world.
And this will be achieved only by the fear of God,
that is the beginning of wisdom.

Abdul-Baha says:
“Should other peoples and nations be unfaithful to you show your fidelity unto them, should they be unjust toward you show justice towards them, should they keep aloof from you attract them to yourself, should they show their enmity be friendly towards them, should they poison your lives sweeten their souls, should they inflict a wound upon you be a salve to their sores. Such are the attributes of the sincere! Such are the attributes of the truthful.” (Abdu’l-Baha, Baha’i World Faith – Abdu’l-Baha Section, p. 445)
HAIKU
We lie by weakness
And lacking of true knowledge
About our glory
