Honesty

If one does not know what is honesty, how can he be honest? But if you know
what is honesty, then you can be honest.
You must know the order of God. And if you follow that, then that is
honesty.
If I know that everything belongs to Krsna, I will not use anything without
His permission. That is honesty.
Even if you drink a glass of water without knowing to whom it belongs, you
are a thief. So you may think, “I am honest,” but actually you are a thief.
You must remember Krsna, “Oh Krsna, it is Your creation, so kindly allow me
to drink.” Therefore a devotee always thinks of Krsna. In all activities he
thinks, “Oh, it is Krsna’s.” This is honesty. So without Krsna consciousness
everyone is a rascal, a thief, a rogue and a robber.
