Quotations
Deep Trivedi
The one and only reason behind all the miseries and failures of our life is our
selfishness and the deeds induced by our selfish nature.
Tampering with nature and natural substances always costs us dear. We are
also bearing the consequences of tampering with our nature only.
Like other particles of the world even "ego" cannot be destroyed. Yes, it can
surely be transformed into soulful qualities... But the moment any "Buddha"
attempts it, fearing extinction, ego not only resists but also activates its self-
defence mechanism.
The horse who wins the race, but does not know the difference between dry and
green grass, for how long can he sustain himself in the race? Same is the case
with people who attain higher degrees or are scholars, but still do not understand
the realities of life.
"Buddha" is such a wonder of time who was not only born in India but for forty
five years he even delivered discourses in India. But just because he opposed
the Hindu hypocrisies, India evicted his precious treasure from its soil. In its
history of past 2000 years, this is the biggest loss accrued to India.
If I talk about the Hindu religion, all their gods are kings and warriors (kshatriya)...
Then when and how did the reins of religion get into the hands of these pundits
and sannyasins?
The ups and downs coming in others' life do not make a difference to you;
because you know that he is the other. If you wish, you can separate your 'being'
from 'yourself' and then like that of others, the ups and downs of your own life will
also not affect you.
The measure in which a person is blind in the field of religion, he is equally blind
in understanding all the other truths of life. This is the reason why the world is full
of mentally and intelligently blind people.
How 'aware' you are by mind, can be judged by the number of people who are
able to gauge your reactions on any particular matter. You will always find the
reactions of an awakened person to be unexpected.
If you wish to accomplish your ‘interests’ propelled by selfishness, you will not be
able to. If you try to get others' interests fulfilled sacrificing yourself, it will never
happen. But yes, if you keep everyone's interests in mind including yours, you
will surely be successful.
