AFTER DEATH
All men will have to face death sooner or later.
They will leave the world behind them never to
return. Ahead of them will be the Hereafter. They
will have no option but to enter this new world.
The Judgement Day is approaching fast. On that
day every soul will appear as it really was. All the
veils that conceal a person’s true nature in the
world will disappear. Beautiful words will be of no
avail in concealing that true nature.
In this world a selfish person can appear as a godly
one. One who is hungry for fame can present
himself before men as a standard-bearer of truth.
One who places self-interest before all in his work
can by clever talk deceive people into thinking that
he is selflessly serving the cause of truth.
But death is the event in man’s life that exposes all
such pretence as false. In the world after death all
such veils will disappear. Man will appear as he
really is for himself and for others as well.
