Quotations
Deep Trivedi
Every individual 'ego' wants to reach the top of the world but the beauty of nature
is such that only a 'non-egoist' gets to sit on the summit of ego.
The ups and downs coming in others' life do not make a difference to you;
because you know that he is the other. If you wish, you can separate your 'being'
from 'yourself' and then like that of others, the ups and downs of your own life will
also not affect you.
There exists a harmony in nature, a sense of mutual co-operation. Even all our
body parts are well co-ordinated with each other. It is only we, who swagger and
proudly claim ourselves to be Hindu, Muslim, Buddhist or Christian. The day we
become just human, even we will have harmony amongst us.
No parallel can be drawn for human love. When an old person is spending his
time in loneliness, nobody bothers to check his well-being. But when he falls
sick, tens of people visit him in hospital and hundreds of people gather when he
dies.
Due to faulty teachings, as we grow we begin to lose the important qualities
like self-confidence, enthusiasm, concentration, vision and foresight. Otherwise
these are the most natural qualities among children. In that case, don't you think
we need to re-evaluate our educational system?
If you continuously wish to take best decisions in life, then stop taking decisions
out of "greed" of getting something or "fear" of losing something.
Sin - virtue, respect - disrespect, good - bad, success - failure, are all divisions
created by the brain. At the level of mind, they are nothing but useless notions.
Life is only the present. And in the present, neither there is room for memories of
the past nor worries of the future. The root cause of all the miseries of life is the
effort to accommodate the past or future in the present.
Among many moral stories told to children by their parents, the stories of obedient
children like Rama and Shravana are mostly told with some extra fondness. Are
some parents living with the latent desire to get their children's youth sacrificed
for the sake of their old age?
It is against nature to pre-decide, what is to be done the next moment. But
surprisingly, people even decide right from what they aspire to become in future
to when should they visit temples and observe fasts. Now, if you act so much
against nature, of course you will have to bear the brunt of it.
