In this episode, Krishna says that According to social conventions,
it is said that one can speak the truth only when it is palatable
to others. But that is not truthfulness. The truth should be spoken
in a straightforward way, so that others will understand actually
what the facts are. Satyam, truthfulness, means that facts should
be presented as they are, for the benefit of others. Facts should
not be misrepresented. If a man is a thief and if people are
warned that he is a thief, that is truth. Although sometimes the
truth is unpalatable, one should not refrain from speaking it.
Truthfulness demands that the facts be presented as they are for
the benefit of others. That is the definition of truth.
