If taking a bath in the holy Ganges can really wash off your 'sins', then why are
poor criminals put behind bars? Giving them a dip in the Ganges, why aren't
their 'sins' also washed off?
Quotations
Deep Trivedi
Before teaching, scolding, advising or giving opinion to children, every parent
of the world should look deep into their lives and question themselves, are they
really successful in their life? Is it not possible that a child, without holding the
hand of his parents, has the potential to surpass them purely on the basis of his
own decisions and freedom?
Nature is all-round balanced by two polar opposites. As there have been
mountains on the earth, equal have been valleys. As vast as the space is,
equally expansive is time. Here, the measure in which negative energy exists,
in the same measure positive energy also exists... It is this balance, which has
made nature sustain itself and we are in this situation today, because we have
disrupted our balance.
All the struggles of life are less dependent on circumstances and more on our
state of mind. This is the reason why "a resolute mind" is easily able to conquer
even the toughest of the problems.
Just look at your poor "foresight" and you will realize; the things that you are so
keen to achieve, once accomplished, in a matter of few days begin to pinch you
like a thorn.
On the screen of your mind, every action has an equal and opposite reaction.
Then that reaction yields thousands of sub-reactions by itself. Therefore, think
thousand times before going against your mind.
There are many things which are difficult for any wise man to understand... Like
the rewards that are bestowed by God in heaven on performing good deeds; the
same when done here are condemned by the religious heads, but then who are
they to condemn it?
Agreed, there cannot be anything in this world more encouraging and exciting
than success. But success is achieved only by those, who refuse to relent on
their efforts even in trying times.
The three most important things for a human being and his life are time, energy
and money. Religious rites rampantly exploit all three of them.
To enjoy 'what you have' is understandable; but mourning their loss has always
been beyond comprehension.
