आप्रियस्य पथ्यस्य वक्त्र श्रोत च ढुर्लभः |
Apriyasya Pathyasa Vakthra Shrotha Cha Dhurlabahah.
Meaning: It is very difficult to get one who tells or one who listens the bitter truth and digest it.
Ramayana’ s Aranya-Kanda. Maareecha trys his best to avoid Ravana’s plan to abduct Sita.
He also warns the divine mention that his death, in the golden deer is the start of Ravana’s destruction. Maareecha then says the above statement haplessly when Ravana refuses all his advices.
If one have to convey truth or make point clear the sentence must avoid subjectivity.. It sounds offending to the listener. If it is mixed with objectivity.. the listener may realize in future if not immediately.
Avoid words like “I/Me”, “you/he/she/they”. Eg: “I told you not to do so” to “It would have been better if so and so approach was considered?"Or you must take this tablet to these tablets to be taken on so and so time - it makes clear to the patient that doctor is trying to help him get cured. It is like sugar coating a pill (the truth) so that it can be consumable (digestable).
Similarly the recipient must actively listen/understand the message, identify the objectivity of the info and conclude the matter. Thirst for truth with right attitude of mind helps to be more objective.
