Quotations
Deep Trivedi
The best state of mind is balanced by two extremes. But we, driven by brain, try
to embrace one and discard the other. It is this discrimanatory practice that has
brought all our good - bad, sin - virtue into existence.
The person who does not love himself, though he may abstain from meat in the
name of non-violence; his mind can never be non-violent.
'Yes' is theism and 'No' is atheism. In life the number of things that you have firmly
abstained from...shows how irreligious you are. The meaning of irreligiousness
itself is the denial of God's creations.
Our mind is full of amazing powers but simultaneously, it has numerous disorders
and negativities too. Because we are unable to conquer the negativities, we
miss out on its marvellous powers as well.
If you want to understand the teachings of Buddha, Krishna, Jesus or any great
philosopher, you will have to learn to differentiate and dissect their sayings
in two parts, one, 'eternal truth' and second, 'the truth relevant at that time'.
Without distinguishing the two, you will invariably end up misunderstanding their
sayings.
If you can accomplish any great task being absorbed in it and that too without
any expectations, believe me, that one act of yours will make you a "historical
person".
Before teaching, scolding, advising or giving opinion to children, every parent
of the world should look deep into their lives and question themselves, are they
really successful in their life? Is it not possible that a child, without holding the
hand of his parents, has the potential to surpass them purely on the basis of his
own decisions and freedom?
The amount of "freedom" with which you are living your life, can be determined
by the extent to which you have to suppress your desires under the pressure
from others.
The one who doesn't love himself, can never love anyone else in this world. And
if he loves himself, atleast he would not torture or trouble anyone in the name of
religion or teachings...
