All that your mind absorbs from the external world will prove to be a deterrent,
meaning it will push you back in life. Whatever your mind brings forth from within,
will only make you grow in life.
-Deep Trivedi
Quotations
Mind
If we are mindful of the true nature of reality, then we never truly lose anyone - even to death.
-Thich Nhat Hanh "Thich Nhat Hanh"
The human mind and body share a deep bond, a bond so deep that majority
of our illnesses are psychological. I would even say, weakening of the mind
initiates the process that leads to death.
-Deep Trivedi
Let your aims be common, and your hearts of one accord, and all of you be of one mind, so you may live well together.
-Vedas "Rig Veda"
The mind exists in a state of “not enough” and so is always greedy for more. When you are identified with mind, you get bored and restless very easily. Boredom means the mind is hungry for more stimulus…it is not satisfied.
-Eckhart Tolle "Eckhart Tolle"
Have you ever noticed that our maximum loss of energy occurs when we try to
restrain the flow of whatever that is coming from within?
-Deep Trivedi
Appreciate fully what you are eating, enjoy it fully, breathing and smelling the aroma to add to the taste, chewing slowly and well, to taste more and to digest better. Discover the subtleties of taste. Gently keep bringing the wandering mind back to tasting fully what you’re eating. Feel the difference! Give thanks for the chance to be able to enjoy what you eat.
-Anonymous "Kalari Kovilakom"
If one speaks or acts with pure mind, because of that happiness follows one, even as one’s shadow that never leaves.
-Dhammapada "Dhammapada 1-2"
The extent to which you depend on the capabilities of your own mind or on the
external knowledge and situation to resolve any issue, shows how deep a mind
you dwell in.
-Deep Trivedi
Flood your mind with love. Look into the eyes of the other and embrace the person with whom you have quarrelled. Words are not necessary. Both will have their eyes flooded, and the joy of tears will wash away all quarrels.
-A Spiritual Leader "Swami Chinmayananda"
