Quotations
Deep Trivedi
Is there a rebirth? No, not at all. From the perspective of what you think as
your way of being, like your name, your family, your country, society, religion or
wealth, all these will surely cease to exist forever with your death.
When we are leading a smooth life today depending upon the creations of
millions of people...then isn't it our duty to do something before death which can
fill the lives of future generations with joy, peace, prosperity and bliss?
It is difficult to understand as to who is stopping a person other than himself,
to live a life in utter bliss and joy. Nobody. And no one can either. It is just the
thousands of rules and fears devised by his brain...that have stopped him.
The biggest scourges of human life are fear, false hopes and dependency.
Thanks to the so-called religious hypocrisies, you do not get anything else but
these three.
What can be said of the human brilliancy? Every day, it comes up with hundreds
of schemes to bring upon its own destruction.
Be it love or business, charity or anger, when you do everything half heartedly,
how can you expect a decisive result?
Just as extra energy is required to push the space shuttle out of earth's gravitation,
likewise, we also need energy above a certain limit to free the mind from the
influence of brain.
In this world, if desires could bring any result - then there is no dearth of desires
in anyone.
Wonder, how can these Jain monks consider all the good things right from
sumptuous meals, good clothes to being fresh and fragrant also a taboo? In that
case, according to them all the animals should be considered "Pure Jain".
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.
