Quotations
Deep Trivedi
If you carefully look at life, there is always something worth learning in each
incident that happens. Our problem is, we get stuck in the incident and miss the
opportunity to learn the lesson.
Jains insist on having their separate food counters even at others' weddings. It
is really difficult to understand, though they seem to be okay otherwise, what
problem they have in mingling with people?
What are we...? Even our ability to see, hear or bear temperature is confined to a
certain limit... In such a case, what is the value of the understanding of our brain
that we have pinned all our hopes on it for touching the heights of success. If you
really wish to make your life successful, it is possible only by understanding the
depths of mind and immersing yourself in it.
The only truth of human life is; after sixty years he has to depart, bidding a
farewell to this world forever... In that case, his only duty which remains, is to
leave behind the historical footprints of his existence in this world.
Other than our 'mind', what is it that we have, which we can call our own?
Everything else is gifted by nature and made usable by science. At the same
time, if you talk of joy of mind, it lies in "art". But then it is difficult to understand
that in this process, where do we feel the need for these 'so-called religions'?
No teaching, no society nor any of the so-called religion explains to us the
importance of qualities like simplicity, innocence, selflessness or compassion.
Whereas the truth is, all the best creations, inventions and arts have stemmed
from the "consciousness" of people with these qualities.
A detached human being is the one who is neither in the race to achieve
something nor is anxious to renounce anything.
Since you are born a human being, it is good to have fancies for life and fulfill
them. It will surely broaden your mind. But at the level of consciousness, you must
harness just one big 'aim'. Buddha, Jesus, Edison, Bill Gates, Shakespeare...all
are the result of 'singular orientation' at the level of consciousness.
I would say harbouring negativities and even the acts driven by such emotions
are not wrong but what is wrong is, because of them your life gets filled with
sorrows and failures.
No matter how grave a problem you are stuck in, to resolve it you must know the
difference between 'thinking' and 'worrying'. Reflecting upon it, however complex
a problem may be, it soon gets solved; whereas worrying about the problem,
you are consumed by it.
