Simplified Meaning:

If someone always accepts and seeks the truth, they don’t have to worry about lies. Let's think about a person who always tells the truth, like a good friend you trust. Even if someone tries to spread a false story about them, the truth that you know will protect them. Imagine a student who studies well and knows the material clearly; they won’t be scared of a rumor that says they cheat or don’t know their subject, because they have confidence in what’s true. Because they live honestly and understand the truth, lies won’t shake them. A similar example can be found in history, where leaders who lead with honesty and transparency gain trust and don't fear false accusations. Abraham Lincoln, known for his nickname "Honest Abe," didn’t shy away from being truthful, which made it harder for lies to damage his reputation. In your own life, always trying to learn and know what’s real means you won’t be easily fooled. If you always act truthfully, even if someone lies about you, those lies will not have power against you. Seek and hold on to the truth, and you won’t have to worry about falsehoods.
