Quotations
Action
We are responsible for what we are, and whatever we wish ourselves to be, we have the power to make ourselves. So we have to know how to act.
- Swami Vivekananda
To concentrate on one task at a time irrespective of its nature or kind, is 'Yoga'.
Likewise, focusing on many tasks at a time is 'Kama', no matter how great or
important you may consider them to be.
- Deep Trivedi
If you are dissatisfied or unhappy with any of your act or thinking, then too don't
try to change it, you will fail miserably. Transform your nature, your action and
thinking will change by themselves.
- Deep Trivedi
Every man feels instinctively that all the beautiful sentiments in the world weigh less than a single lovely action.
- James Russell Lowell
Do you want to know who you are? Don’t ask. Act! Action will delineate and define you.
- Thomas Jefferson
Concerned alone with the upholding of the world, you should act. Whatever the best man does, others do that also. The world follows the standard he sets for himself.
- Srimad Bhagavad Gita
In pursuit of auspicious time a lot of people delay the "act" even when the time,
situations and conditions are ripe or they tend to act even when circumstances
are not in their favour. These are nothing but the "means" which lead you to your
own end.
- Deep Trivedi
Action has meaning only in relationship and without understanding relationship, action on any level will only breed conflict. The understanding of relationship is infinitely more important than the search for any plan of action.
- J. Krishnamurti
Only in India, the Goddess of Wealth is harassed by worshipping her for the
sake of prosperity... Perhaps annoyed by such large scale harassment she has
turned her back on us. Wouldn't it be better if we further our faith only in our
"actions" to prosper in life?
- Deep Trivedi
Linking karma with physical acts is the lowest level of intelligence. This
encompasses all the acts right from fasting to rigorous toiling. A wise being links
karma with intent. Pure intent is in itself a good karma. But a supremely intelligent
being views "karma" in the light of its result. Whatever is the final outcome of
your action, is indeed your "true intent".
- Deep Trivedi
