Quotations
Deep Trivedi
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.
Now the time has come for all the open-minded, intelligent Muslims to come
forward and form a powerful association. If they themselves don't show courage
or care about their fellow brothers...why would someone else?
The religious scriptures are thousands of years old. Don't know since when
they have been engaged in the upliftment of mankind. But still, considering the
enormity of the pains and problems of human beings, they have been proved
miserable failures. Now, it is high time...that new ways of thinking be adopted.
Tampering with nature and natural substances always costs us dear. We are
also bearing the consequences of tampering with our nature only.
Because we suppress our anger against the strong and powerful, we keep
venting our anger on the weak, irrespective of the reason.
Why don't we understand the simple fact that we have to spend the major part
of our life with ourselves. Then why do we depend on other people or things and
invite sorrows? Obviously, how can a person who is so dependent on others for
his happiness, ever be happy?
If you really wish to strengthen your individuality and accomplish something
great in life, then recognize the presence of "witness". Only because it is there,
you can feel that you are working.
Neither do we have to make the sun or moon rise nor manage gravitation. We do
not even have to convert the food that we eat into blood. All that we have to do
is, put our own life on the path of peace, bliss and success. Isn't it amusing that
we, who claim ourselves to be so intelligent, cannot do even this bit of work?
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.
