Quotations
Deep Trivedi
In Jain scriptures, the only complete man in the history of the world "Krishna"
is also placed in hell. To the extent that even Buddha, who has enlightened the
whole world has been mentioned by the Jain monks as the one initiated by
"Mahavira". Isn't it the height of their insecurity and inferiority?
Question is, why did the truly "intelligent" people distance themselves from
the great personalities like Krishna, Jesus and Buddha? Because, in order to
strengthen their individual businesses, religious gurus associated miracles with
them. Now, an intelligent person may agree with anything but can never accept
'miracles'.
Do you know the difference between 'doing' and 'happening'? Whatever that
you have to do out of compulsion, shows your lack of power and slavery, and
whatever that simply ''happens'' by you is actually the time when you are really
alive.
Our biggest problem is the complete contrast in the nature of brain and mind.
Majority of the people do not even realize the separate existence of the two.
As a result, their entire life gets crumbled and destroyed in the constant friction
between their brain and mind.
We tend to suppress our anger against each other which ultimately leads to big
quarrels some day. If two people have been naturally expressing their differences
of opinion or having small arguments on regular basis, they will never have
resentment or enmity of a lifetime.
When even the smallest of an incident happening to us is a continuity of the
millions of events happening past thousands of years, what calculations have
you engaged your brains in? The person who understands the calculations of
how the occurring events are shaping the circumstances, surely attains whatever
he desires, without any efforts as and when he wants.
Be it life or business, "satisfaction" is the biggest key to success. Firstly, being
satisfied you don't fall back; secondly, in the absence of greed and ambitions,
you do not engage yourself in mindless activities and miserably fail; and thirdly,
sitting peacefully, you are able to spot the golden opportunities to grow in life.
Peace, happiness, satisfaction, compassion, freedom, concentration, etc. are the
qualities which lead you to those intrinsic powers lying deep within your mind...
from where the foundation of you becoming a "historical figure" gets laid.
If you keep your focus fixed on the 'witness' - the one who is watching rather
than the 'ego' - the doer...your identification with the objects, people and acts will
be severed. The root cause of all the miseries of the world is our attachment with
them.
