Quotations
Deep Trivedi
Life is only the present. Here, the moment once gone, is gone forever. It can
never come back. At the same time, no moment of future arrives with prior
intimation. Hence, this travel back and forth in the past and future, is nothing but
the manifestation of our fears. There is nothing worthwhile in it.
Life in other words is to "work" hard for the upliftment of yourself as well as
others and as and when opportunity knocks...thoroughly enjoy yourself. There
cannot be any other purpose of life.
Many a times, our unessential understanding becomes the cause of our problem,
yet we can't resist applying our brain in every trivial matter.
The unsuccessful person falls for the ritualistic hypocrisies of religion. Such
hypocrisies give birth to false hopes, and false hopes lead to performing wrong
deeds. Wrong karma induces more sorrows; and more the miseries, more the
person falls for religious hypocrisies. Such a sorry state of human beings is
solely owed to being trapped in this vicious circle.
Without knowing your own mind, no success can be achieved in life. But to
understand the mind, neither books nor teachings are available. This is the sole
reason for such a miserable failure of human beings.
If you wish to understand mind and life, then religion or institutes will not be
able to teach you. For that, you will have to carefully observe all the natural
phenomena and events unfolding around you.
To attain the state of non-violence, you need to have an impartial eye. Only if
your attitude is like that of a judge towards everyone including yourself, can the
violence be minimized in our lives.
The act which gives you happiness, which even the mind gets excited to do...
how could it be a 'sin'? After death, anyway you will not be able to do anything.
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.
The foundation of Hindu religion has been laid on the pillar of tolerance. It
has revered all the rebels like Buddha, Kabira, Shankaracharya, Chanakya,
Dayanand Saraswati who had opposed the prevalent hypocrisies in their times.
It didn't kill them the way reformers like Jesus, Socrates or Mansoor were...
Then where did this Hindu fanaticism emerge from?... Perhaps in order to make
their businesses survive, it is being propagated by the Hindu religious heads.
