These sources collectively discuss the concepts of honesty and purity across various philosophical and religious perspectives. The "7 Insights into Spiritual Purity – SUPPLY OF GRACE" text focuses on Christian spiritual purity, emphasizing that while believers have positional purity in Christ, they are called to practical purity through internal transformation via Bible study and prayer, aiming for pure thoughts, heart, conscience, and actions. "Purity in Buddhism - Wikipedia" defines purity as the eradication of moral defilements to achieve nirvana, highlighting both Theravada Buddhism's emphasis on self-purification through meditation and the Mahayana concept of an unsullied Buddha-nature revealed by removing contaminants. The "Honesty - Wikipedia" entry broadly defines honesty as moral character attributes like integrity and truthfulness, along with the absence of deceit. Expanding on this, "Why Are We So Honest? | Psychology Today" explores the evolutionary and social reasons for human honesty, suggesting our prosocial nature and the adaptive benefits of a trustworthy reputation drive this ingrained trait. Finally, "Virtue in all things = complete honesty always? : r/Stoicism - Reddit" and "What are some pros & cons to being honest? : r/entp - Reddit" present a more nuanced discussion of honesty in Stoicism and everyday life, acknowledging that while generally virtuous, there are situations where complete frankness might not be ideal, and that true virtue stems from reasoned judgment rather than rigid rules.
