The entire past of a person is like a dustbin. Whenever one puts his hand in and
tries to take anything out, no matter what it is, it will surely stink. Similarly, all his
aspirations for future resemble the desire to fly like a bird, whenever he will try,
he is bound to fall hard and hit the ground.
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
The root cause of all miseries lie hidden in "Me and Mine". If it is my wealth, then
the pain of losing it, if it is my body, then the affliction of sickness... Whereas in
reality, there is nothing yours other than the feeling of your "Being".
The depths of our mind are forever bright and shining like the sun. It is we who
have cast a shadow of the brain and eclipsed it.
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.
If you closely observe life, you will find, here with every pleasure there is pain...
and with every pain, pleasure. Hence, among all that is happening, if you keep
your eyes fixed only at the brighter side of it, you can always be happy.
If you always want to be happy in life, toy with troubles as if it were a game. See;
whether you defeat the problems or they defeat you.
What amount of "truth" are you living in can be gauged from the way you perceive
the good-bad events happening with you, and how much of it you attribute to
yourself and how much to others?
Have you ever seen classes where tigers are taught to hunt, monkeys to jump
or cows being trained to abstain from eating flesh? Then what are we being
preached and why? Do our religious heads and scriptures consider us even
worse than animals?
To be joyous in life, a few bites to eat in peace, pouring rains or cool breeze are
sufficient... Whereas for reasons to be sad, you can write thousands of books on
it.
In pursuit of auspicious time a lot of people delay the "act" even when the time,
situations and conditions are ripe or they tend to act even when circumstances
are not in their favour. These are nothing but the "means" which lead you to your
own end.
